It’s finally here! After a TON of work, and several unforeseen delays, the Lipo Battery Shootout 4 is finally live and online! I can’t thank everyone enough that helps make this happen. The amount of time and effort to make these shootouts happen is insane. Special thanks to Cubby who did most of the text and number crunching this year. [...]
As the numbers stand right now, the MT4-G3 barely edged out the Ruckus by just a few votes. The Dominus 10SC has a bit more comfortable lead over the 5IVE-T.
