Key Features

• 3600mAh Capacity — This mid-range capacity strikes an excellent balance between runtime and weight, giving you plenty of run time without unnecessarily burdening your RC model with excess mass that could impact handling and acceleration.
• 11.1V 3S Configuration — The three-cell (3S) lithium polymer arrangement delivers 11.1 volts nominal output, a standard voltage used across countless RC vehicles, making this battery compatible with a wide range of RC models available to UK hobbyists.
• 40C Discharge Rating — This strong discharge rating means the battery can deliver high current outputs when needed, supporting vehicles with demanding power requirements and enabling explosive acceleration and sustained high-speed running.
• Hard Case Protection — Unlike soft-case batteries, this pack features a protective hard shell that shields the delicate lithium polymer cells from impact damage, crushing, and puncture during transport, storage, and active use in the field.
• Stick Format Design — The traditional stick-style profile is purpose-built for RC models with vertical battery bays, offering secure fitment and stable weight distribution in vehicles designed around this proven battery layout.

Technical Performance

The Voltz 3600mAh Hard Case 11.1V 3S 40C LiPo Stick battery is engineered for reliable performance in RC applications demanding consistent power delivery. With a 3600mAh capacity, this battery provides substantial runtime for 3S LiPo applications, whether you're running a brushless RC car, RC truck, or other compatible model. The 40C discharge rating indicates this battery can safely deliver 144 amps continuously (3600mAh × 40C = 144A), making it suitable for high-performance setups whilst remaining efficient enough for general recreational use. The hard case construction protects the three lithium polymer cells from physical damage that could otherwise compromise battery integrity and safety. This battery is designed for use with RC models that specify 3S 11.1V compatibility and possess adequate battery bay dimensions for stick-format packs. Users must verify their specific model's battery bay size, connector type, and ESC current rating limits before installation to ensure full compatibility. The stick format makes this battery ideal for RC models with traditional vertical mounting points, and the hard case adds minimal weight whilst providing crucial protection during transport and storage. This is a genuine Voltz product delivering the performance specifications that UK RC enthusiasts have come to expect from this recognised brand.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What RC models is the Voltz 3600mAh 3S battery compatible with? — This battery is compatible with any RC model that accepts 3S 11.1V stick-format hard-case LiPo packs. However, you must check your specific model's battery bay dimensions, connector type, and ESC current rating limits. Many RC buggies, RC cars, RC trucks, and RC short course vehicles use 3S batteries, but not all accept the stick format. Contact RC Model Shop if you're unsure whether this battery will fit your specific RC model.
• Is the 40C discharge rating suitable for high-performance RC vehicles? — Yes, the 40C discharge rating provides strong current delivery capability, supporting responsive acceleration and sustained power output in demanding RC applications. This makes it ideal for competitive racing, high-speed running, and performance-oriented setups, whilst remaining efficient enough for recreational use and general bashing.
• Why does the hard case matter on this LiPo battery? — The hard case is crucial because lithium polymer cells are vulnerable to physical damage that can cause internal short circuits, reduced performance, or safety hazards. The protective shell guards against impact damage during transport, storage, and field use, helping to extend battery lifespan and maintain safety. Hard case batteries are generally preferred over soft-case alternatives for this reason.
• How long will the 3600mAh capacity last on a single charge? — Runtime depends on your RC model's motor efficiency, driving style, and power draw. Generally, a 3600mAh 3S battery provides 15-30 minutes of running time in most RC vehicles, though this varies significantly based on motor size, ESC settings, and terrain. Racing applications typically see shorter runtimes than cruising applications.
• Can I use this battery with an older RC model? — Possibly, but you must verify compatibility first. Check that your model's battery bay can physically accommodate the stick format, that the connector type matches (many older models use different connectors), and that your ESC is rated for the discharge rating. Consult your model's manual or contact RC Model Shop for specific guidance.
• What charger do I need for this 3S LiPo battery? — You need a charger specifically designed for LiPo batteries with 3S capability. Standard NiMH chargers will not work. A basic 3S-compatible balance charger is the minimum, though many RC enthusiasts prefer multi-chemistry chargers that handle LiPo, NiMH, and other battery types. Our team at RC Model Shop can recommend appropriate chargers for your budget.
• Is this battery suitable for beginners to RC? — This battery is a quality product suitable for anyone using compatible RC models, including beginners. However, beginners must understand LiPo safety practices including proper charging, storage in LiPo bags, and awareness of over-discharge risks. If you're new to LiPo batteries, our RC Model Shop team is happy to provide guidance on safe handling and storage procedures.
