The inclusion of a strain relief clip on the balance lead further enhances durability, protecting the delicate balance cables from the stress of repeated charging cycles and battery installation.

Key Features

• 5000mAh Capacity with 4S Configuration — This battery delivers 5000 milliamp-hours of energy across four lithium polymer cells, providing 14.8 volts of nominal output. This capacity and voltage combination makes it ideal for brushless RC cars, trucks and buggies that demand sustained power for extended running times.
• 50C Maximum Continuous Discharge Rating — The 50C rating means this battery can safely deliver 250 amps of current continuously (5000mAh × 50C = 250A), making it suitable for high-performance brushless motors and demanding club racing applications where instant throttle response and consistent power delivery are critical.
• Hard Case Construction — Unlike soft-pack batteries that are vulnerable to puncture and deformation, the protective hard shell on this VOLTZ battery safeguards the cells from impact damage. This is especially important if your RC car experiences crashes or rough terrain, allowing you to drive with confidence even in challenging conditions.
• Low-Profile Stick Pack Format — The compact 139 × 46 × 49mm dimensions give you flexibility in battery placement within your RC car's chassis. The low-profile stick pack shape fits easily into purpose-designed battery trays whilst maintaining optimal weight distribution for handling and performance.
• Pre-Fitted Deans Connector — The battery arrives ready to connect directly to your RC car's ESC and power system. The Deans (T-Plug) connector is one of the most popular standards in RC hobby, eliminating the need for connector adapters on compatible vehicles and reducing setup time before you can get out and drive.
• Strain Relief Balance Lead Clip — The delicate balance connector cable is protected by a dedicated strain relief clip that prevents kinking and stress damage during installation and removal. This thoughtful engineering detail extends the battery's lifespan and reduces the risk of charger connectivity issues.
• Tested and Developed with Industry Leaders — VOLTZ has partnered with world-leading battery manufacturers to develop this range, ensuring the cells, internal protection circuits and overall construction meet exacting performance standards. You're buying proven technology, not an experiment.
• Ideal for RTR Upgrades — Many ready-to-run RC cars ship without batteries included, and this VOLTZ pack is specifically designed as an upgrade option for those models. It's the perfect battery for brushless RTR cars that require a 4S LiPo power source.
• Club Racing Ready — With its 50C discharge rating and consistent power delivery, this battery is entirely suitable for competitive club racing applications where reliable performance and repeatability matter. Many competitive racers trust VOLTZ batteries for their training and race days.

Technical Performance

The VOLTZ 5000mAh 4S LiPo delivers impressive technical performance across all the metrics that matter to serious RC car drivers. At 14.8 volts nominal (4S configuration), this battery is perfectly matched to brushless motor systems rated for 4S power, which includes the vast majority of modern RC cars available in the UK market. The 50C maximum continuous discharge rating translates to exceptional current delivery, supporting high-KV brushless motors and aggressive driving styles without voltage sag that would degrade performance. The 74 watt-hour energy capacity represents a substantial power reserve—enough for extended run times in most RC car applications, typically 15-25 minutes of active driving depending on throttle usage and terrain. The hard case construction employs robust polymer materials that protect the underlying lithium polymer cells from mechanical damage whilst remaining lightweight enough not to significantly impact your RC car's weight distribution or handling. The internal cell configuration is built to industry standards with integrated protection circuits that manage charge balancing and prevent over-discharge scenarios. The stick pack format means this battery sits low and compact in your RC chassis, maintaining optimal centre of gravity for control and cornering performance. Every component—from the internal cell tabs to the external connector—has been engineered for reliability, with the strain relief clip on the balance lead representing just one of several design touches that prioritise longevity and user experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will the VOLTZ 5000mAh 4S LiPo battery fit in my Traxxas MAXX? — The VOLTZ battery measures 139 × 46 × 49mm, whilst the Traxxas MAXX battery tray is specified as 162 × 45 × 43mm. Unfortunately, the VOLTZ pack would be too large to fit safely in a MAXX without potential fitment issues. For Traxxas MAXX applications, Traxxas recommend their own TRX2889X battery pack specifically designed for that model.
• What charger should I use with this VOLTZ 4S LiPo battery? — Any multi-chemistry charger with dedicated 4S LiPo capability will work perfectly with this battery. The charger should have a balance charging function to ensure all four cells charge evenly. Popular options in the UK include LiPo-specific chargers from brands like Spektrum, Hobbywing and other dedicated RC battery charger manufacturers. Your local RC Model Shop team can recommend suitable charging solutions if you need guidance.
• Is this battery suitable for beginners to RC hobbies? — Whilst the VOLTZ battery itself is reliable and well-made, 4S LiPo batteries require responsible handling and proper charging procedures. Beginners should ensure they have appropriate charging equipment (a quality 4S-compatible charger with balance function) and understand basic LiPo safety practices. If you're new to RC cars with brushless motors, the power delivery might be intense compared to brushed alternatives, so experienced guidance from RC enthusiasts is valuable.
• What RC vehicles can I use this battery with? — This 4S LiPo is suitable for: ready-to-run RC cars supplied without batteries; brushless-powered RC vehicles requiring 4S LiPo power; any RC car with a Deans connector ESC and 4S motor system; club racing setups using 4S-rated brushless motors; and vehicles where the 139 × 46 × 49mm form factor fits within the battery compartment. Check your specific RC car's battery specifications before purchasing to confirm compatibility.
• How long will this battery last during use? — Typical runtime varies between 15-25 minutes of active driving, depending on throttle usage, terrain, motor KV rating and driving style. More aggressive driving with frequent full-throttle acceleration will consume the battery faster than smooth, controlled driving. The 5000mAh capacity provides substantial energy reserve for extended sessions on less demanding terrain.
• Why is the hard case better than a soft-pack battery? — Hard case batteries protect the delicate lithium polymer cells from impact damage, puncture and deformation. This means your battery can survive crashes and aggressive driving conditions without compromising internal cell integrity. Soft-pack batteries risk cell damage from impacts, which can lead to voltage sag, performance reduction or even safety issues. The extra protection is worth the investment for reliable, long-lasting performance.
• Does this battery work with trophy buggies and other competition vehicles? — Yes, the VOLTZ 5000mAh 4S LiPo is entirely suitable for trophy buggy applications and other competition-grade RC vehicles that use 4S brushless systems with Deans connectors. The 50C discharge rating provides the consistent power delivery that competitive drivers demand, and the dimensions (139 × 46 × 49mm) fit many standard competition battery trays.
