SMC 4000 & 5000 Hard case Lipos

SMC have announced that they are releasing 2 new hardcase LiPo packs with a true 28C rate. Offering a 4000mAh and a 5000mAh pack, the 4000 pack will be thinner so it will fit in any car where a sub-c pack fits, while the 5000 pack will be thicker and will require some modifications to fit in some of the more popular sedan cars. The packs come with 12 gauge silicone wire and Deans plug to handle high current applications and have been submitted to ROAR for approval.
