    I'm not sure what you're talking about? Lipos?

    They exist... just don't expect the 3S to have the same capacity as the 2S.
    I have 2S and 3S LiPo's for my MiniRevo... the 2S are 2200mAh and the 3S are 1800mAh with both being about the same dimensions.
    What RC are these going in?
    Whatever it is I just said... I could be wrong.

    look into a 3300mah 3s lipo, I own a blue lipo that's a 3300mah 3s and the size seemed pretty reasonable, gens ace, blue lipo and sky lipo are all the same brand, they make many different sized just research the dimensions of each battery. If it's going in a street car you probably don't need the higher capacity of a larger 3s lipo, you might want a higher C rating if you're looking for all the performance of a larger pack.

    Look for a 4100mAh 3S in a standard 2S hardcase from SPC Racing in a couple/few weeks.
    I know they're having their break there by your brake drums. No, you're not invited.

    They make different sizes for all scales... with difference cell counts too.

    The point is, they make 3S that are 2S sized for every model RC.
