What is C-Rating?

The C-rating represents the battery's discharge capability. A 45C 2200mAh pack provides 99A continuous. Always ensure this exceeds your ESC's requirements.

The 80% Rule

For longevity, try to keep your average current draw below 80% of the battery's continuous discharge rating to prevent overheating and voltage sag.

Voltage Sag

Pushing a battery near its limit causes extreme voltage drops. If you notice a "soft" performance drop, your battery might be struggling with the current demand.
