I've been running the Turnigy 5000 2s 30c in most of my cars and trucks for a long time now and no problems at all. I do however, run the Thunder Power 5000 40c in my drag cars. Much more power for that dump it all right now. :thumbup1:

Why are you guys buying cheap lipos .....that like say i like being 3rd place or 4th....if your racing you want the best ....if your bashing run 7 cell NMH batterys....i like winning so i run the best..45C team orion ..50cthunderpower.....
Actually, I do just fine with them in most all my cars and trucks. I've taken a few wins in off road, and on road. I have had only one that went bad and that was because my gearing was way to high in the pro mod and smoked the whole system. Not everyone can afford those big buck batteries, so use what they can get.

I am not a basher, and they do just fine in certain cars & trucks that I have and even my original Losi Jr that I bought and raced since 1984.(with some updates & now retired) Let's just say it is a persons option to choose what they want to use. Stop and think that maybe that is all they can afford too. None of us have the right to tell other people what to do or down grade them for their choices. With over 75 vehicles and planes in my arsenal, and many wins, they do fine other then my drag cars where I use Thunder Powers.

I've just got some more lipos from there, 2 5000mah 3s packs, and a 5000mah 4s pack!

I have a mate that has 2 maxamps lipos, and both have swelled, he has since gone to turnigy lipos, and no problems as of yet
Also, if we do short/break/set fire to our lipos, it's not as mush of a loss than a $100+ lipo.... :|

The turnegy 3000 mah 35c 3s is a good one and only 13 bucks from hobbyking.com I bought 4 and they have worked great feeding my mamba monster 2200kv in my monster truck just figures I'd put that in there
