These are not Li-po cells. They are not packs that charge all cells together. And then there’s the Li-ion 101 that everyone is supposed to read and thoroughly understand…

One cell will run the Q8, but of course nowhere near it’s potential. Tom has seen over 20A draw from 4 top cells, doubtful a single cell will do this kind of output although there are some that can get close… they’ll die very very quickly at a 7C discharge rate! (anyone not understanding the use of the C terminology needs to find and study Li-ion 101)
