I've been using two of these packs in my trex450 which isn't a real one, its made from aftermarket bits.
Motor is a medusa 28-40-2500 driving radix315 blades through a 15T pinion. My ESC is a Quark Universal 33A which I'm running with its governor set at 3000 rpm.
I just want to say how pleased I've been with these packs. They were £50 the pair delivered (though delivery was not swift). My packs have about 30 cycles on each now and they have always run cool and delivered lots of power. My other packs were xtreme power 18c ones and they just puffed and failed to hold volts when I upped the head to 3000 from 2700 (my lipo alarm set to 3.2v/cell went off after 1 minute). The maxamps packs are coping fine.
today I hammered one of them flying virtually the whole 6 minute flight in tock tocks, tumbling and tumbling forward flight just to see if I could drain the pack inside 6 minutes (I started the flight at 8.54pm and flying stops at the field at 9.00pm). After the flight the pack shows 30% plugged into my cellpro4 and perfect balance (I've only charged the packs on this charger).
This pack had a lab test at trextuning that was not outstanding, so I wasn't really expecting them to be so good!
Its all subjective of course - I have no data graphs or anything - maybe my heli would be a complete monster with a revo pack in it.
Actually I'll probably get one of those in the next few weeks, I need another pack to fly with when I go on holiday.
