I've tested about 20 different brands and the SMC's are the best, at least for me (and those are all "swimming with the fishes" now, what a huge waste of money). All others actual C is more like 25%-40% of their advertised C.
His other batteries are more for the car guys and they have inflated C ratings, only because he has to compete with other manufacturers that all exaggerate the C and he knows that the flight guys don't get suckered in as much on "advertised" C. So don't think because it's ONLY 40C that it's not as good as some others claiming 50-100C. For 6S, the 4500, 5300 and 6200's are top notch. Also check out the weight of these "graphene" batteries, much lighter than other high C batteries. Somewhere on RC Groups there is also a complete analysis done on something like 50 batteries for aircraft and the SMC 6200 is at the top for weight, actual tested C, individual cell amps and price. If you have any questions about the packs, send an e-mail to the owner, Danny Sullivan, and he'll get back to you immediately, he's very customer service oriented.
