Added to the BRCA list 16.02.2009

Does anyone know where and when the 5300 40c version will be available from? It looks the same as the 5300 28c above. It's on the BRCA list but can't find it anywhere??????????????????

May be they put the wrong information on the list and it should be 28C rating! Whats the point of releasing a 5300 with a 28C rating, when they have a 40C rate version - doesn't add up to me?
I think they have made a mistake on the information dude!

The weird thing is the Part number seems to be logical.. cause the 28C's part #99969.. hmmm..

Maybe the batt's were sent from NOSRAM direct but isnt available yet..

Sorry - just had a look at the info! Should really look at the info, before posting!lol

They seem to be the most powerfull lipos at the moment along with the LRP (sister company) lipo!

I'm still not sure on lipos!?!? Yes easy and care free! but are they more powerfull??? I tried a Losi 30C 4400mah and didn't really notice that much differance between that of my OLD cells and the NEW Lipo??? Maybe these latest and more powerfull lipos are better??? Who knows??? (I dont!lol)

honestly... i've tried the higher C's lipo.. Lipo being lipo still lacks the punchiness of the nimh. but their getting there..

The major advantage i feel is the power consistancy during the run.. where as nimh would start to ease of in the end.

The 28c's been out for sometime but i think the 40C is the new bits..
To support that, the sister company had it out at the previous model show.. So we just have to wait & see..

Well the Nosram email replies are very quick here's what they had to say. Roll on next month...oh 2 sleeps to go then wooooshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Dear Mark.

Thank
you very much for your email and request. At the moment the 40C batteries are
not available yet. Estimated availability is March 2009.

5300 and 40C sounds good but They wont fit in many of the Cars out on the market ...

especially ours..maybe some mods can make it through..
