How long are you running the 5600 and what voltage does in come off the track at?
A 4x SCT puts a lot of stress on a 2s pack and if you run it down to a low lvc you will probably see puffing.
I run the race formula 7200 with a 6.9v lvc. I get about 12 min on practice days. I could get more time with a lower lvc but it's not worth the strain on the pack.
