• 3250mAh Capacity — The 3250 milliamp-hour capacity offers practical runtime for typical RC sessions, providing enough energy for sustained driving without the excessive weight penalty that comes with oversized batteries, making it ideal for RC enthusiasts who want to balance playtime with vehicle agility.
• XT60 Connector Standard — The XT60 connector is the industry-standard plug found on the vast majority of modern electric RC models sold in the UK and beyond, guaranteeing simple, reliable connections with zero compatibility concerns and making battery swaps between different RC vehicles effortless.
• Compact Lightweight Design — At just 135mm long, 42mm wide and 28mm tall, weighing only 0.34 kg, this battery pack fits into tight battery compartments without adding unnecessary bulk to your RC vehicle, preserving handling balance and acceleration characteristics.
• Soft-Case Protection — The durable soft-case outer casing shields your battery pack from impacts, abrasions and environmental hazards during transport and storage, extending the lifespan of your investment whilst remaining flexible enough to fit snugly into modern RC chassis designs.
• Lithium Polymer Technology — LiPo chemistry delivers superior energy density compared to older NiMH batteries, meaning more power in a smaller, lighter package—a critical advantage for any RC enthusiast serious about performance and handling.

Technical Performance

The Radient LiPo 4S 3250mAh 14.8V 50C battery represents the convergence of modern engineering and practical RC application design. At 14.8 volts nominal output (4S configuration), this battery is engineered to operate efficiently with the vast majority of brushless and brushed ESCs (electronic speed controllers) found in contemporary electric RC vehicles, from 1/10-scale RC buggies and RC monster trucks through to specialist RC crawlers and racing platforms. The 50C continuous discharge rating means this pack can safely supply 162.5 amps of current continuously without thermal runaway or voltage collapse—a specification that translates to genuine, sustained performance during aggressive acceleration, hill climbing, or high-speed runs characteristic of modern RC car and RC truck enthusiasts. The 3250mAh capacity, when combined with the 50C rating, produces a total energy specification (measured in watt-hours) that positions this battery as a versatile middle-ground option: lightweight enough for vehicles where minimal mass is critical, yet capacious enough to deliver realistic run times measured in minutes rather than seconds. The soft-case construction uses resilient polymer materials engineered to withstand impact, compression and flex during the rigorous demands of RC use, whilst remaining flexible enough to conform to the battery compartments of modern RC models. Radient has employed rigorous quality control and cell matching during manufacturing to ensure voltage balance across all four cells and consistent performance throughout the battery's operational lifespan. The XT60 connector itself uses gold-plated contacts designed for low electrical resistance, minimising voltage drop and ensuring maximum efficiency transfer of power from the battery pack to your RC vehicle's electrical system.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What RC vehicles is the Radient 4S 3250mAh LiPo battery compatible with? — This battery is compatible with any electric RC vehicle equipped with an XT60 connector, including RC buggies, RC monster trucks, RC cars, RC crawlers, RC trucks and many specialist platforms. The 14.8V nominal output suits most brushless and brushed ESC configurations found in modern electric RC models across the UK. If your RC vehicle uses a different connector type (such as Deans, EC5 or others), you can use an XT60 adapter.
• Is the Radient 4S 3250mAh battery suitable for beginners? — Yes, this battery is appropriate for hobbyists of all experience levels, though the age recommendation of 14+ should be observed. Beginners should familiarise themselves with proper LiPo charging procedures, storage practices and safety protocols before use. LiPo batteries require a compatible charger and responsible handling to ensure safe operation. If you are new to LiPo batteries, we recommend asking our team at RC Model Shop for guidance on the correct charging and storage practices.
• How long will this battery last on a single charge? — Runtime depends on your specific RC vehicle's motor system, driving style and terrain. Generally, a 3250mAh capacity provides 15-25 minutes of continuous driving on a typical electric RC car or truck, though high-performance setups may experience shorter run times due to higher current draw. Light recreational driving will yield longer runtimes.
• What charger do I need for the Radient 4S 3250mAh LiPo battery? — You will need a charger specifically designed to charge 4S LiPo batteries, which are capable of balancing all four cells to maintain optimal voltage distribution. Many modern RC chargers sold in the UK support 4S LiPo charging profiles. Do not attempt to use basic chargers designed for older NiMH batteries, as they will not properly charge or balance a LiPo pack.
• What is the difference between the 50C rating and other discharge ratings? — The 50C rating indicates the maximum continuous discharge current this battery can safely provide. It is calculated by multiplying the capacity (3250mAh or 3.25Ah) by the C rating (50), resulting in a maximum continuous discharge of 162.5 amps. Higher C ratings enable more sustained high-current output; this 50C specification is ideal for performance-oriented RC applications without being excessive.
• Can I use this battery in multiple RC vehicles? — Absolutely. The XT60 connector makes the Radient 4S 3250mAh battery compatible with any XT60-equipped electric RC vehicle, making it an excellent investment for multi-vehicle RC enthusiasts. Many UK RC hobbyists own several RC cars or trucks and rotate a single battery or battery set between them.
• How should I store the Radient 4S LiPo battery? — Store your LiPo battery in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If you plan extended storage (more than a month), charge or discharge the battery to approximately 50% capacity (around 7.4V on a 4S pack) and store in a fireproof container or LiPo bag. Never store fully charged or fully depleted, as this stresses the cells.
