Bah I dont understand why newer batteries are limited to 1C. There are so many powerful chargers on the market right now. I wont buy a battery thats not at least 3C charge capable.

I would be able to charge a (3C charge capable) 6000mah 2S @ 18amps on my hyperion charger vs 6amps with this new Losi 60C lipo. Thats like an hour vs 20mins.
