I need 2 sets of 3s lipos for my hurri 550.

I can't decide if I want :

Kong Power 3s/2200/25c or

Thunder Power 3s/2200/25C

Same specs and the TP's are only $12-13 bucks more for the pair..

I plan on running Gaui 1100k / Align 75a ESC

Basic flight/no 3d

What do you guys think..

I love the KP, you won't be disapointed.

I have that same setup on my hurricane with the 13 tooth pinion and you may want to think about larger batteries. The 1100kv motor is hard on batts and with 2200's you will only be getting 4-5 min flights. I am actually using 3300mah Zippy packs I got from unitedhobbies for 40$ a piece. No problems with them so far.

Thanks for the advice.. I'm gonna buy the KP 2500 for the 450 since you can't beat $120 from readyheli for 2.. I will research for a more powerful pair for the Hurri.. Those zippy packs don't sound bad.. especially when I am still learning.

Thanks.. JK
