I think Hobbypartz/Nitro Models must keep having to raise their prices. Otherwise, it's hard to stay in business when you have no inventory to sell. Honestly don't know how they survived this long. Everything worth buying is always out of stock. Then you don't know what you're getting when you do buy from them. The new 5800s are on the ROAR approved list. They would instantly add value and probably sell them out if they could assure buyers that they come with the required ROAR approved sticker and the part numbers match the ones on the list. It would be an even bigger bonus if they came with Dean's style plugs instead of the stupid red tubes nobody uses.

I've had very good luck with the 40c 5000 GA packs I own. I was dissapointed with the 2 50c packs I bought more recently. There was nothing wrong with them except that the 40c packs out perform them both on a discharger and on the track and the part numbers don't match the ROAR approved list. HobbyPartz has worn me out having to look at their web site everyday and never finding what I'm looking for. They list a quad charger, a couple of metal gear servos, an amp meter, and more of the 40c batteries that I'd like to buy but are never in stock. It just makes me bitter looking for them. I think it's time to move on to a more reliable seller and just pay the extra dollars to get what I'm looking for. So much for saving a few bucks. It isn't worth the aggravation.
