I am using two 800mah RCMI 7.4v lipo packs in my GT14B wired in parallel so it is equivalent of 1600mah. Goes really well and is in the saddle pack formation.

So would it be fair to say that if you guys could get these in the UK that are a good spec then you would buy local rather than ship in from afar???

Also, what would you say the largest dimensions are that fit the battery holder on these 1/18th scale jobbies???

all different
The lrp shark, rc18 series and the mini t all use different configurations of stick type packs, all in different sizes, the gt14b uses saddles. theres loads of lipos that fit available in the uk except for gt14b. check out the uk micro rc forum for info.
