Default Saddle Pack Lipo

Anybody know if any manufacturers are planning to release a saddle pack lipo ? I know Track Power have one on the market, but my current balancer is not compatible.

I know Reedy are supposed to release a saddle hardcase, and Maxamps have saddles without hardcases (so not racing legal for many areas).

Cheers!

Not surprised! Ridiculously overpowered! Is it BRCA legal?
