Ive got 35c saddle 5000 of the same make and have no problems with them at all. The performance is identical to vampire but a bit cheaper.

I dont like them really. Got both the 5000mah and 5600mah and I feel they lack performance compared to my old Ip packs. The older packs seems to be of better quality actually. I am never going to buy them again.
That is my opinion.

Looks like they are wired on the side of the Lipo pack, will this fit in the Cougar properly?

The SV is designed for Lipo packs with tube or wired connectors on the top of the cells isn't it?

(I assume you want these for an SV from looking at your sig)

Surely 5000mah 50c is way too much for 2wd? and probably most 4WD's a well...

2000mAh and 20c is way too much... but try selling a pack of those when your rivals have bigger numbers!

Its not for the cougar its for a losi xxx cr

and 5000mah 50 c is perfect for 2wd if you can handle the extra punch
when put through an lrp sxx v2 and 6.5t motor lol

i find the lrp 5300 35c packs lack the power i need but i am loathed to spend 95 quid each on 2 more stick packs

Although these packs might be rated at 250amps I wouldnt necicarally trust the figures.

I have a 40c 5000mah intelect pack and it gives plenty of power (for 2WD and 10thtouring) but I think the 5000mah rating is a bit optimistic, probably more like 4000mah

Im not saying dont buy them, just dont take the numbers at face value.

If you do buy some then it would be intesting to hear how they compare to more expensive packs.

I Run the same 5000Mah 50C lipos in my Xray touring car and they are brilliant. So much punch. Perfect for Stock racing but maybe not for 2WD?

in most cases they say it's 50c but in reality they are 30-40c or even lower
