Your paying for oversees shipping with the other brands as well, but it's built into the cost. If you don't need them right away you can do the second option which is like $20 and I usually get those in about a week and a half.

I started with the nano-techs since I was able to get 2 packs with the 3day shipping cheaper than one set from a local retailer.

They have worked well for me so far, but only have a bout a dozen runs on them each. They last a whole race for me no problem, don't notice them falling off till around the 10 min mark.

Those of you ordering stuff from HK need to remember about Chinese new year. It'll take a while.

"great" is too subjective. What we really need is discharge charts from a 3rd party. Not sure if any are out there our not.

If the best gen's ace has is 25c then I would pass on those. I have a 5000mah 40c stick pack that causes cogging about half way though the pack with my setup, where my protek's and turnigy's have no issue.

AE makes pin retainers for them. But yeah, stock they float and held in at bearing.
