Key Features

• Stable Automatic Stacking Technology — Gens Ace employs advanced cell stacking methodology that enables individual cell capacities of 5300mAh, ensuring consistent energy density and discharge characteristics throughout the entire pack without compromising structural integrity or safety.
• Strict Single Cell Matching Process — Every cell within this battery pack undergoes the most rigorous capacity, voltage, resistance and discharge curve matching process available, guaranteeing that each cell performs identically to its pair, which directly translates to predictable power delivery and extended pack lifespan.
• 140C Continuous Discharge Rate — This exceptional 140C rating provides phenomenal power output suitable for high-performance racing applications, delivering sustained current draw that modern brushless ESCs and high-KV motors demand without voltage sag or performance degradation.
• HV (High Voltage) Chemistry — Operating at 7.6V for a 2S configuration, this pack delivers elevated voltage compared to standard LiPo chemistry, providing enhanced acceleration response and top-end speed performance that gives you the competitive edge on the track.
• Shorty Hardcase Design — The hardcase protective shell shields the battery from impact damage during crashes and rough handling, whilst the compact shorty form factor fits perfectly into modern race chassis designs, optimising weight distribution for superior handling and responsiveness.
• Factory-Installed 5mm Bullet Connectors — Pre-fitted 5.0mm bullet connectors eliminate the need for additional soldering or connector installation, allowing you to get straight out to the track without delay, whilst the industry-standard connector type ensures compatibility with the vast majority of racing ESCs and power distribution systems.
• ISO9001 and ISO14001 Certified Manufacturing — Gens Ace and manufacturing partners maintain rigorous international quality and environmental standards throughout production, guaranteeing consistent product quality, safety and environmental responsibility in every pack.
• Low Internal Resistance (Low IR) — The precision engineering and cell matching result in exceptionally low internal resistance, which means the battery maintains stable voltage delivery throughout your entire race run, preventing mid-run voltage sag and ensuring consistent power until the final lap.

Technical Performance

The Gens Ace Redline 2.0 5300mAh 140C battery pack represents a masterclass in high-performance LiPo engineering. Weighing just 199 grams with dimensions of 96mm length by 47mm width by 22.5mm height, this pack delivers an exceptional power-to-weight ratio that directly enhances your RC car's acceleration, handling balance and overall competitiveness. The 2S2P cell configuration (two series, two parallel) provides the perfect balance between voltage output and capacity, delivering 7.6V nominal voltage with substantial 5300mAh capacity for extended race sessions. The 140C continuous discharge rating is exceptional, allowing peak current draw of 742 amps, which means this battery can comfortably support the most demanding brushless motor and ESC combinations without thermal stress or performance loss. The strict cell matching process ensures that both parallel strings discharge identically, eliminating voltage imbalance across the pack and extending overall battery lifespan. Built with HV (high voltage) LiPo chemistry, this pack delivers enhanced performance compared to standard chemistry alternatives, providing noticeably improved acceleration response and top-end speed that translates directly to faster lap times. The hardcase construction provides robust physical protection whilst maintaining the compact shorty profile that modern 1:10 racing chassis require. Whether you're running this battery in a modified off-road buggy navigating technical terrain or a competitive F1 class touring car on high-speed circuits, the Redline 2.0 delivers the power stability, runtime capacity and reliability that separates championship-winning setups from the rest of the field.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What 1:10 scale RC cars is this battery compatible with? — The Gens Ace Redline 2.0 5300mAh 140C pack is specifically engineered for 1:10 modified off-road platforms and 1:10 F1 class racing vehicles. It is compatible with chassis from leading manufacturers including Xray, TLR, Team Associated, Schumacher, Serpent, Kyosho and Infinity. If your RC car accepts 2S LiPo batteries with 5mm bullet connectors, this pack should fit perfectly into your chassis, though you should verify that your ESC and motor setup can handle the exceptional 140C discharge rating.
• Is the Gens Ace Redline 2.0 suitable for beginners? — This is a premium racing battery designed for experienced RC car enthusiasts and competitive racers rather than beginners. The 140C discharge rate is exceptionally high and requires a compatible ESC rated for high current draw. If you are new to RC cars in the UK, you should start with a more modest 2S battery in the 50-100C range paired with an appropriate beginner-friendly ESC and brushless motor. Once you have gained experience with LiPo handling, safety and maintenance, you can graduate to high-performance packs like this Redline 2.0.
• What does the 2S2P configuration mean and why does it matter? — The 2S2P designation indicates two cells in series and two cells in parallel. The two-series configuration provides 7.6V nominal voltage (3.8V per cell), whilst the two-parallel arrangement delivers the substantial 5300mAh capacity without requiring cells physically larger than those in single-pack configurations. This balanced architecture enables Gens Ace to achieve both high voltage output and high capacity in a compact shorty form factor, optimising both power delivery and runtime for competitive racing applications.
• Why is a 140C discharge rate important for RC racing? — The 140C rating represents the continuous current the battery can safely deliver. For high-performance brushless motors drawing substantial current through advanced ESCs, a 140C rated pack ensures the battery can sustain peak power output without voltage sag, heating or degradation. This maintains consistent acceleration response and top speed throughout your race run, preventing the performance loss that occurs with underpowered batteries, which directly translates to faster and more consistent lap times.
• How does the strict cell matching process benefit performance? — Gens Ace's rigorous matching ensures that each cell within the pack has identical capacity, voltage characteristics, resistance and discharge curve properties. This precision matching means both parallel string cells discharge identically, preventing voltage imbalance that can reduce pack lifespan and cause erratic power delivery. You experience more predictable performance and longer overall battery life, making this investment worthwhile for serious racers.
• What makes HV chemistry different from standard LiPo chemistry? — HV (high voltage) LiPo cells are formulated to operate at higher nominal voltages, delivering 3.85V per cell instead of the standard 3.7V, resulting in 7.6V for a 2S pack rather than 7.4V. This additional voltage provides noticeably improved acceleration and top-end speed performance, giving you a competitive advantage on the track. Modern brushless systems are specifically engineered to handle HV chemistry, making this technology safe for compatible equipment.
• Is the 5mm bullet connector compatible with my RC car? — The 5mm bullet connector is industry-standard for 1:10 racing vehicles and will fit the vast majority of modern ESCs and power distribution boards used in competitive racing platforms. However, you should verify that your specific ESC or power distribution system accepts 5mm connectors before purchasing. If your equipment uses XT60, XT90 or other connector types, you would need to either solder adapters or use a different battery pack.
• How long will this battery last during a typical race run? — Runtime depends entirely on your specific motor, ESC, gearing and driving style. The 5300mAh capacity provides substantial energy storage, but a high-discharge-rate 140C pack used in competitive racing typically delivers 10-15 minutes of intense racing before requiring recharge. For longer testing sessions, many racers maintain multiple charged batteries to rotate through.
