Default Smaller Stick LIPOS

Got some Trakpower 3600 LIPOs, but after another LIPO pack. What packs are smallest around this capacity as I need to fit it into a B4 + lead & XXCR etc.

I looked at Tekin etc. but they have locators pushing the height to 23mm which is too big. Looking for something around 20mm high

That's what I was thinking, but just wanted to check

Would rather get BRCA legal as I would like to do an event soon.

Think they are similar to the 3600s. I'll check the Trakpower website again in a bit

ok, the 3200s can be bought for 29.99 if you look around, maybe worth a look if you want to save some pennies!

Back of the battery holder is a too tight. Getting Tony Evdoka to make a brass battery holder for it. But I am also thinking of using the velcro straps as found on the original XX

I like my B4, but love the XXCR more
