I'm selling some if you are interested, IP 5000 mah, 30C. Used them in my Cat SX and very well suited. (£35 posted, and they are advertised in the for sale section)

If you want new I think you would really need to spend a bit more than your budget to get good ones, but someone else might have a better idea than me.

you also need to keep in mind that the max height of the lipo has to be no more than 24mm-
its a nightmare trying to find suitable lipos for a cat

Yes, good point, anything over 5700 is very doubtful for fitting in a Cat SX
