I just ordered Gens Ace 6s 1400mah 40C packs for my Warp. It's not listed anywhere, but Gens Ace will make them. Just ask your dealer to order them from Gens Ace.

How long does it take gens to make them? I take it they are made overseas correct?

They are made in Asia and it takes about a month. Price is at the same level with normal packs, 10% more than 1200mah 6s 40C.

I have a set of Desire packs that they sent me as samples in my 7HV. I didn't exactly have a pleasant experience with the manufacturer when I had to make a shipping claim due to damaged packs. I had to turf 2x 5000mah lipos. They never did file the claim on my behalf or replace the packs.

That said, the packs do seem to be performing quite well.

I hope you have a better experience ...

I would order now then I suppose. Only fear is are we 100% sure they will fit? I'd hate to get some packs that I have to jam on a canopy that barely fits or is outside the recommended weight range. Is it a for sure thing?

Can't say for sure if it will fit. Measures I got for 1400mah 40C: size:34*34*106mm weight:210g

But I'm not sure that those are correct, Gens Ace 1200mah 40C measures:
Hobbypartz says 35 x 29 x 107,5mm, weight: 217g
Gensace.com says: 34 x 30 x 105mm, weight: 229g

So size could be correct, but weight can't be since then it would be lighter than 1200mah pack.

I m going to measure gens 1200 and post it here .

[zeusramon]

Weight:232

27,5 x 31 x 110

I'm using Chrome 6s 1300 35c packs in my Warp. It balances perfect and power is awesome!

Pulse Ultra 6S 1350mAh 35C only

Thor 6S 1350mAh 25C and 35C

Hey freaks,
What are you thoughts on these Nano's...

A fit?

thanks

[Gawl]

Should work, I would opt for the Gens Ace or Chromes though. Every nano I have owned has ended up in puff city.

[brent.downey]

Thanks,

The Gens Ace listed in this sticky are said to be on the light side at 1200 mAh.
Think that would be a problem?

Cheers

I ended up ordering four of the 35C Chrome batteries from Nankin.
