Using Lipo at a club meeting

[markwilliamson2001]

Has anyone yet used a Li-Po 5000/4900 mAh Li-Po pack at a meeting in a 2wd brushless off-road buggy? How many 5 minute runs could I expect to do on one pack before recharging? I am definately looking at buying one for club meetings, since it would make my life a lot easier on friday nights..

We currently do 5 runs on a pack (1 Practice, 3 heats and a final). Would one fully charged pack do this, or would it require re-charging on the night?

Hope someone can answer my questions.

Thanks
Mark
