Low cost Yeah Racing Lipo
 

I have been looking for a cheap stick pack for my Optima and found these that are about the same price as some more expensive NiMH packs.

Anyone have any experience of these?

Some eBayers are selling for much less direct from Hong Kong too (about £20 shipped!) which makes it very tempting.

I'd have to factor in the cost of a balancer and a cut-off but might still be worth it.

got two packs and there great, v punchy and only using 1400mah in 2wd 2laps before and the 5 min race, and 1600mah in 4wd.
Just as good as my 4900mah trakpower.

Not this one exactly but I use one of their 1700 mAh one in my Blaze and it's brilliant, no problems at all - just race, marshall and then put it on charge to top it up for the next race (normally while I fix something else I've broken!)
