Sunpadow announces the launch of this Platin series 3.7V 8000mAh pack which is an ultra-thin, low centre-of-gravity lithium battery for racing. Specially developed for the 1/12th modified class, which consists of 8-minute races, it features a large capacity, weighs just 159 grams and is 93 x 47 x 18.5mm. Excellent discharge capability ensures a stable voltage supply for racing, especially for the last one or two minutes of the race, where the voltage is usually very low, minimising the risk of any shutdown of your electronics, which is caused by excessive instantaneous voltage drop from the large current output in 1S applications.
