Lipo for SC10

[acorn28]

Hi guys, I've just bought the brushless SC10 and am looking at the budget Overlander Sport Lipo batteries to run it. Does anyone use these and are they any good? Any guidance or other recommendations would be greatly appreciated by this newcomer, cheers.

Tbh I not really heard of the overland lipo's so can't really comment for or against, I personally use HPI Plazma 5300 30-40c. Never had a problem can easily get 10 mins racing with a 7.5 motor plus plenty more after, if ya shop around they have come down slightly to around the £60 mark, I got mine last may and they were £78.99. Still got plenty of go in them.
Hope that helps

Yes thanks that's helpful. I'd read that some people had trouble fitting certain lipos in the sc10 due to the positioning of the leads & battery holder.

the Plazma cells do have the lead but all i do is place the large spacer at the rear and the small spacer at the front, gives good battery positioning for weight plus it sets the wire back from the locking mechanism.
