There will be a 1 week delay on the 4S just got a revised schedule from the factory this morning. The good news is we will have a decent amount of them so we should get caught up on pre-orders.

So I forgot my password to your site. Requested a new one sent to the email, but it doesn't work copy pasted directly from e-mail. Just an FYI. Signed up with my other email to get what I needed.

Looking for 2s batteries for my new B4.2.
Will all the SMC batteries fit with no issues?

Stan they are conventional sized packs, a buddy of mine ran my 4600 70c shorty with no issues and he runs reedy standard packs, so I don't see why they wouldnt.

$ for $ these packs, the 4600 70c shorty in particular, are about 30$ underpriced. Get them before danny realizes this.

+1 the two 5100 40c packs that I have were a bargain for how good they are.

Danny, I asked the question the other day if I could shorten
the battery wires=no response.
So, I will try again, can the wires on the batteries be shortened a inch
or so?

I'm not Danny, but yes, you can shorten the wires on a battery pack. Simply cut 1 wire, solder on a new connector and make sure it has proper insulation (such as shrink tube) on the solder joint, then cut the other wire and do the same.

DO NOT cut both wires at once, nor just try to desolder the current connector and then shorten the wires. Doing so is asking for a short.

Note: I wouldn't expect any kind of warranty if something goes wrong after using your own plugs.

I ordered two battery packs with Traxxas ends, I will put Deans
ends on it.
I am having my LHS guy do all soldering.
Thank you.

Nice, it was 8 for me!

If you are like me, you will LOVE the simplicity involved with EP racing now-a-days.
