But ultimately it's your decision. The Gen aces however are only 25c and that depending on your system is going to stress the battery heavily. You should benchmark 35c or more. I think C rating is extremely overhyped... But a "true" 35c battery won't be stressed by the power.
You really shouldn't comment on stuff you have no experience with.
Gens Ace are fine. I have run about 15*20 packs on mine with no problems.
I run a RX8 with a Tekin Pro4 4600 and Savox servo. No puffing and long run times.
Another member here Rickybobbyxxx runs a Tenshock motor with a rx8 and Gens Ace hold up fine.
Plenty of people run the Gens Ace in b44's and Durango SCT's with no issues either.
I've had bad luck with Turnigy running a stickpack on sc10 2wd. that battery really is a piece of crap. Not only did it puff, but it fell apart.
If I had the $$ I'd go with an Orion or Reedy but I don't have that kind of $$ laying around. (yet)
