For 1/8th you don't really want 4mm Corally connectors idealy. A couple of soft-case LiPos designed for Helis or planes would be better.

Try a couple of Hyperion 3300mAh 4S LiPos in parallel (for a 6600mAh 4S pack), the 25C packs would easily be enough with that kind of capacity. $85.95 each.

Alternatively, try a couple of Hyperion 5000mAh 2S packs in series (for 5000mAh 4S), again 25C is enough. They're only $66.95 each.

A really good place to get them from is RC-LiPos. (http://www.rclipos.com/Hyperion_G3_CX.htm)

Of course not. I've never used hard-cased LiPos in 1/8 scale. Provided they are secure, and not allowed to slide around (which should also be observed for hard cased LiPos - it is only a thin sheet of lexan surrounding the cell anyway), they will be fine.
