Anyone using Thunder Power batts?

Bloody hell, i missed out on the 50% crash replacement thing.

Yea I too heard that but want seasoned info.

I not worried by charge rates as rarely go above 1c only sometimes using 2c but it's the performance during flight and life cycles I want

My friend has bought some and I think he flys them in his tdr 65c, he was the one that convinced me to go for them. He said there excellent! And can be charged at high c rating. 2 year warranty and 50% crash replacement! Worth wild investment! Heard you can get around 500 cycles.

I've been using 3S 2250's on my 450 size heli's for over a year and they're still performing as good as when they were new. The cells also seem to stay balanced pretty well. No issues with them at all. good quality packs.

Perhaps you need to get some more info out of the optipower testers who told us it is very likely the high c rated packs were probably not achieved by the pack as a whole but only by a single cell in ideal conditions.

Cheers. All helpful but hoping to hear from some flying them as main flight packs.

I take buying my lipos very seriously and look at them as an investment so want to gather as much info as poss to make a decision on buying some.

ive used them on my Auroras as tx packs and now on my 700. to be fair ive not noticed them perform any better than any other packs ive used but then as a tx pack i wouldnt. but i can say ive had them longer than any other packs ive used and they havent puffed in the slightest and im still getting the same amount of flights after over a year of constant use.
Good quality packs imo

Moving my lipos over to thunder power, bought 2 x 2700mah 6s for my logo 400se. Will report back when I can.

I'm surprised the Nano-Tech didn't explode in that video from the strain, well it would have got the more views...



Also note how they are very flat for 3S lipos??


I'll get my coat..

Yea, soon as I see it had HobbyKimg stamped on the bottom all it's credibility went out the window, so i switched off.

If you are looking for a "probably" biased comparison against Turnigy Nanotech, look here:

Looking for some serious feedback on them.

Yes I know they are expensive blah blah but they are regarded by many on the US forums as the best there is and after a post last night I have been looking around today to see what I can find.

The warranty is second to none etc but does anyone use them over here? Mainly 6s I'm interested in but any dealings would be great. Have you needed to use the warranty?
Are they better than anything you have used??
