    Good video, I always had a feeling the NANOTECHS were stronger, but never laid out a test. Great job... I guess the video guys found out that "Halogen" lights makes video Yellow!!! No biggy, Been nice to find a test bed that wasn't so brilliant

    Great video guys! This really helps in deciding which batteries to purchase. It looks like I will be spending more money at HK for batteries very soon... Have to get ready for the flying season! Thanks for the fair way to test without skewing the results.

    Thanks again!!!

    I have been extremely impressed with all of my turnigy batteries thus far. I just received some 460 nano techs for the indoor season that I haven't tried yet. This really makes me feel good about sticking with them. Excellent test. Good to know I'm saving money without giving up performance.

    At 6:26, did David just speak Swedish?
    We need your help! Otherwise it's just two guys who like Flite Test, hanging out at the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome museum. http://tinyurl.com/a2tfxsj

    Not sure, I was told growing up that it was French and I should never speak French in mixed company! (LOL)

    Try to do a test outside in the cold winter and you will se that the "standard" Turnigy battery won’t give you almost any flight time but the Nanotech (or other hi c batteries) will deliver almost as in summer. Nanotech high C-rate batteries are not just for extreme wattage but also the best choice for normal flying.

    posted the link to the test on another forum. The answer was just what I expected "wrong, fail, unfair." Objections were "only 4th cycle, everyone knows that nanos die after only a few more" "the TP battery wasn't fully charged" "HK sponsored, bias test".
    I was expecting this. Would be nice to see a similar non-sponsored comparison with multiple labels. I personally am very impressed with nano-tech price and performance, so for me it's a no-brainer.

    Was very surprised by the Turnigy battery performance. (non-nano)

    why were you surprised by the turnigy battery performance?
    To understand recursion you have to understand recursion first.

    I am extremely happy with my Nano-tech's and will replace all LIPO's with them
