Performance & output
Delivering a continuous 65C discharge rate (344.5A) and a burst rating of up to 120C (636A), this pack is designed to handle extreme loads without voltage sag. Its 5300mAh capacity ensures long run times, while the 3S (11.1V) format is ideal for 1/10 and 1/8 scale RC cars, trucks, and buggies requiring sustained power output.
Hard case durability
The tough ABS hard case protects against physical impacts, track debris, and handling stress, making it perfect for competitive environments where crashes and collisions are inevitable. This added security also prolongs cell life and keeps the pack structurally intact.
