The numbers still look good and still runs strong but I can't use it anymore since I can't strap it down flat in my TC. Can this be repaired or am I stuck with a new paperweight?

Jeff,
I had a similar issue with other brand packs when I first began using LiPo. After gathering more information about LiPo care, I found my problem to be with improper storage between usage (Race days). Recommend placing a storage charge on packs between race days to prevent LiPo swelling. This process fixed the issues and I had with no further encounters. Will forward your message to Matt and see what he recommends.
Thank you,
