If I missed it sorry, but what is the name of the MFG. that makes SMC cells? I did not see it.
I have been messing with lipo in planes YEARS before they where popular in cars. I made my own packs out of cell phone packs for my slow flyers, bigger packs from price scanners and such. And I can tell you from my experence in planes that if a lipo is a 10c it is a 10c cell. I have a zippy pack that I hammer pretty hard when I fly and ballance it everytime. It is still working great...and it was a cheap pack.
All I say is that in my experence in trying many different lipo packs for both flight and cars I don't think that the price the "players" charge is worth it.
