Ensure you get a LiPo pack that's the same or similar voltage as the input voltage of the RC engine.See the picture,the original LiPo packs is Gens ace 4s2p,14.8v, 6600mah,then the output voltage from the new LiPo cell is also 14.8v.If you find you can't exactly match the engine's voltage to a LiPo battery pack, then choose one that's the closest.For example, if your RC engine operates on 10 volts, then get a LiPo pack that produces 10.8 volts:but now the lipo 3s voltage is nearly the same when serial connection or parallel connection in Lipo battery.

Check the capacity and C rating requirement:


You’d better keep the capacity and C rating same as the original battery.So from this battery,you need to buy a new 6600mah,35C rating,and the charge&discgarge rating 5C to fit your original one,which can help to keep almost the same battery for using,if you want to change the capacity,please ask the professional supplier in details,then decide the right one.

Check the plug requirement:

Warranty:


Look for a hassle-free warranty that includes a free-replacement time frame.

The best way is that you can send your original battery manual to the supplier,if not,please take clear pictures to them.And be sure everything is right and aswer their questions detaily.It is advised that you can buy the original battery again,however,some hobbyists are not very satisfactory about the original one and want to update to better battery,then keep in your mind these main points when purchasing new 5000mah lipo battery.
