Default Rather new to lipo, any manufacturer to avoid?

Hi,

Just going to start my LIPO adventure, and after getting some knowledge from previous posts here, regarding C rating vs AMPS drawn from the esc I feel rather confident I will manage this task to keep my cells alive...

What I would like to know from you guys if there are any particular brand one should avoid?

This is my set up:
Tamiya DB01
EC Power5.5T (esc and motor)

Charger will most likely be a IMAX B6AC.

I am only going to bash and have fun, no need compete for me.

I have been looking at some of the cheaper brands such as:
* Yeah Racing
* EC Power(states that their cells can be discharged below 3v. - 2 packs for 45 USD shipped)
* Top Racing, ebay no name I guess
* 3 Racing


Anyone can say anything good or bad about these cells?

Any other makers you can recomend? Looking for something that can handle 60-85 amps, so maybee 3000mah and greater and 25-30C.
