Running very strong still. A little slow to top off so I assume balance is not as good as when new but excellent performance.

became mechanically soft after 36 flights. It had continued to perform well, but I ran it low (5%) on the flight (2 cycles) before this data was taken. Cellpro 10s charger indicated 'lowvolt' on pack containing cells 1-5, but charged okay this time. Pack has always run 94-98F after flight. I'll keep using it and see what happens

Low cost packs continue to perform well. 
Never over 100F after landing. Became 
mechanically  soft after about 36 flights. 
Cellpro 10s says I've 
taken it as low as 10-11% charge.

Looks to be the same quality as my first Rhino.  Very good.  Rhino performance/cost show batteries are continuing to improve.  All we need now is a little less weight

Great value.  No signs of degradation yet.  About the same as the True RC 20C at 38 cycles.

Running strong after 51 cycles.  Battery warms up slightly after 3500 mah run. 

Still holding greater than 17.5 volts per 5 cell  when under load. 

See attached chart for the 4th and 51st cycle.  Note that a different prop was used for the two charts. 

A great battery for less than $70.
