I’m also using this battery for Rx and they are really good. Here is the picture of self made Rx pack of 6.6V 1100mA, this 2S LiFePO4 pack weight 106 grams including all those wires and connectors. Futaba 4.8V 600mA Rx pack weight 86 grams, I could save couple of grams by shorten the length of those wires. Best features of this batter are can be fully charged within 10 to 15 min and also not required any VR. Self life is more than NiCad/NiMh/LiPo/Li-on.
