Originally posted by Evan D View PostI bought one and while it worked it wasn't very good at supplying amps or run time. I still use 5200mAh 2S LiPo's. These are what I use but mostly as they were old LiPo's I no longer was using in airplanes.
HobbyStar 5200mAh 7.4V, 2S 45C LiPo Battery - Deans Connector | RCJuice

I'm really torn by this request. I say I've done it and someone says prove it. I guess you want me to do measurements too?
Where did you get your measurements from? My tanks bay is 140mm (5.52in) long and the battery is 130mm (5.12in). The link I posted said the battery is 133mm long.
Or will you now want it in another tank?

I looked at the Lithium Polymer battery quite extensively. They are much cheaper than the Li-Ion packs and more plentiful from e-bay and Amazon sellers. I purchased a 2S 2200 mAh, a 2S 5200mAh and a 3S 3000 mAh packs. The 2S 2200 mAh, and 3S 3000 mAh packs fit the HL battery compartment easily, But I could not get any LiPO pack with a larger then 4000mAh to fit unless I cut up the tank chassis and decided against it.
Seeing is believing. The 5200 mAh Lipo is 6.5 inches long. How it can fit in the 5.8 inches HL battery compartment is hard to envision. Can you show a picture of the battery inside the compartment?

A fully charged 3S LiPo is 12.6V. My understanding is there are some tanks MFU electronics that can take that and some that can't. For example the TK 6.0 can take 12.6V... But I wouldn't do it.

Originally posted by Evan D View PostI think you are looking at a different battery, maybe the Admiral? They are longer. My Hobbystar are old, the date on that one is 2019. The newer 5200 I’m using are Coddar and Race Day Quads also has a 5200, both also fit in our tanks.
