Hi Guys. I was wondering where besides Rotorquest can someone get the Gens Ace lipo packs.
I am looking for 4S or 5S 35C packs.
Hobbypartz will NOT ship to Canada.
Nor UPS.
Thanks
Bill

Try to order some now..
This is on their website after you add the batteries in your cart...

Total shipping costs are calculated during checkout and may be adjusted based on customer location. Please note that UPS does not ship to PO Boxes.
NOTICE: Effective May 16, 2012 the Postal Service™ Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Serves, listed in the Domestic Mail Manual section 601.10.20, codify that primary lithium metal, lithium polymer, lithium alloy (non-rechargeable) cells and batteries or secondary lithium-ion cells and batteries (rechargeable) are prohibited when mailed internationally, and to or from an APO, FPO, or DPO location. Until such time that a less restrictive policy can be implemented consistent with international standards, and in accordance with UPU (Universal Postal Union) HobbyPartz, NitroPlanes, Xheli, NitroRCX, and RaidenTech will not ship lithium batteries that are not permitted in international mail in addition to Alaska and Hawaii.
The Department of Transportation’s (DOT) regulation for shipping Lithium batteries has taken notice of the additional hazard material handling in which HobbyPartz, NitroPlanes, Xheli, NitroRCX, and RaidenTech opt to act accordingly. This will prevent any express shipments listed by the suppliers above from shipping UPS and USPS 1 day and 2 day air. This does not include shipments involved within the continental United States by USPS or UPS ground.
HobbyPartz, NitroPlanes, Xheli, NitroRCX, and Raidentech support regulations consistent with ICAO Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods in order to fulfill the concerns of maintaining the highest safety to both the shipment carriers and our consumers.
Rotorquest has them but no 4S or 5S.

Pool your purchases and have them shipped to Freeport Forwarding in Plattsburg and then pick it up.
If you guys had ordered HobbyKing they will be here already.

Everytime I've ordered from shops in England and Germany I get my order faster than ordering from the US.

HK does ship LiPos to Canada.
I just recieved an order last friday with 6C Lipos. Took 10 days. Pretty good.
Usually takes between 7 to 10 days.

Francois I wished that HK had the Gens Ace lipos. But they don't.
The only distributor for Gens Ace is Hobbypartz .com, NitroPlanes, Xheli, NitroRCX, and Raidentech
Even the company that makes them Acepow Electronics in China don't have a website.
Apperantely in Germany there's a distributor for GA but only for Europe.
It sucks

There's another company I signed up with, is called Kinek.
Will give it a try and see what happens.

Hi Guys,
How many times do I have to say forget Lipos. Forget genorators. Let's get some nuclear power. We can have very long flights without the hassle of charging. It even blows away the nitro and gas stuff. :rolleyes:
Yupppp!
