[NSRCA-discussion] 6S+4S-Good or Bad?

[Ed White]

Bill Ahrens and I ran the Rhino 6S/4S 4900's and had pretty much the same 
experience.  We hoped they would be more robust because they are rated 25C vs. 
20C for the 5S. They ran good, had good power, but puffed and went south 
sooner.  I bought 2 shipsets in the spring and ended up retiring them both 
before the end of the season.  First batteries I've owned that didn't make it 
one full season.  There was a period where I had stopped flying the 6S/4S Rhino 
packs, even for practice. But was still flying a Rhino 5S/5S from 2011. I 
charged them as 10S and they always balanced well, but with higher IR's than the 
5S/5S.  I don't think this had to do with the 6S/4S combination, just the 25C 
cells were not as good as the 20C. I think the combination is OK, but I wouldn't 
recommend the Rhino 4900's.

Wondering if anyone has run these instead of 10s, and were results different 
from 2x 5S setups?
