Technical Performance

The Corally Power Racing 60C LiPo Battery represents the pinnacle of lithium polymer battery engineering for demanding RC applications. With a rated voltage of 11.1V across three series-connected 3.7V cells (3S 1P configuration), this battery delivers consistent power output that remains stable throughout your driving session. The 5500mAh capacity provides substantial energy reserves, whilst the 60C continuous discharge capability enables peak current delivery of 330 amps (5500mAh × 60C = 330A), making it suitable for high-performance brushless motor systems commonly found in competitive RC buggies, trucks and stadium racers. The battery incorporates silicone-insulated wiring throughout, with the main power lead featuring robust 12 AWG gauge to minimise voltage sag under load, whilst the JST-XH balance connector employs finer 22 AWG silicone wire for precision cell monitoring and balancing. Measuring 138mm in length, 47mm in width and 35mm in thickness (with ±2mm manufacturing tolerances), this compact battery pack fits most modern RC car battery trays without modification. The included hard protective case provides excellent impact resistance and organised storage, whilst the T-Plug connector ensures compatibility with the vast majority of ESCs and charging systems used in UK RC racing and hobby setups. Each battery undergoes rigorous quality assurance processes including individual cell voltage matching, internal resistance grading and comprehensive testing before shipment, guaranteeing that you receive a perfectly balanced, high-performance power source ready for immediate use.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What vehicles are suitable for a 3S LiPo battery? — The 11.1V 3S format is ideal for most medium-sized electric RC cars including 1/10 scale brushless buggies, trucks, stadium racers and short course vehicles. It's also popular for electric-powered RC boats and mid-sized aircraft. Check your vehicle manufacturer's recommended voltage specifications to confirm compatibility, though 3S has become the industry standard for most modern electric RC cars available in the UK.
• How long does the battery take to charge? — The Corally Power Racing 60C battery supports charge rates up to 3C, meaning you can charge the 5500mAh capacity at up to 16.5A (5500mAh × 3C ÷ 1000). At maximum charge rate, a full recharge from empty takes approximately 20 minutes. Slower charge rates are also possible and may extend battery lifespan, typically requiring 30-40 minutes at 2C rates.
• What is the maximum current this battery can deliver? — With a 60C continuous discharge rating, this 5500mAh battery can safely deliver 330 amps continuously (5500mAh × 60C ÷ 1000 = 330A), making it suitable for high-performance brushless motors with ESCs rated for similar current handling.
• Is this battery waterproof? — Whilst the battery cells and internal components are protected from moisture, the external connectors and case are not fully waterproof. Always keep the battery dry and avoid submersion in water. The hard carry case provides good protection during storage and transport.
• How should I store this LiPo battery? — Store the Corally Power Racing battery at room temperature in the included hard case, away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. For long-term storage (more than one month), it's recommended to charge or discharge the battery to approximately 50% capacity (around 3.8V per cell) to maintain cell health. Always keep the battery in a cool, dry location away from flammable materials.
• What does the 60C rating mean? — The 60C rating is the continuous discharge multiplier that determines maximum safe current delivery. Multiplying battery capacity (5500mAh) by the C-rating (60) and dividing by 1000 gives the maximum continuous current in amps. This 60C rating means the battery is engineered for high-drain applications requiring sustained power delivery, making it ideal for competitive racing and high-performance RC vehicles.
• Why is cell balancing important? — Balancing ensures that all three cells in the 3S pack maintain equal voltage, which extends battery lifespan and maintains consistent power output. Unbalanced cells charge and discharge unevenly, leading to premature failure. Corally's meticulous balancing process guarantees that your cells remain matched throughout their operational life.
• Can I use this battery with my existing RC car? — The 11.1V 3S LiPo format is industry standard for most modern brushless RC cars available in the UK. However, verify that your vehicle's ESC is rated for 3S LiPo, and confirm your charger supports 3S balancing charging. The T-Plug connector is standard, though some older vehicles may use EC-5 or XT-90 connectors (available separately in the Corally range).
