Check out this thread with regards to the crimping tool, the small ends and new servo plugs if you want them.

I had not tried the protek 2300 lipo and probably won't. Here is what it comes down to. The 1300 mah battery has more than enough capacity for a 60 min race. I don't know how long it will last, but it is roughly equivalent to a 1750 mah nimh battery. More capacity than that is of no benefit to me. Now I want to maximize other things. The 2300 is 1 mm thinner than my nimh pack. The 1300 is 4 mm thinner. Now I can lower my fuel tank. The 2300 weighs 95 grams. The 1300 weighs 61 grams. The 2300 costs $45. The 1300 costs $29. To me this is a no-brainer... Get the 1300 or two.
Scott- I can build 2400mah or 2700mah packs for $30. That's a no brainer- especially with an underweight car.
