MY VERDICT BELOW***

A quick test looking at these two top tier lipos. Nothing definitive here just giving people some info if your in the market for some killer new packs.

***
Verdict - To me its a dead heat, from what I could tell they both performed exactly the same as far as internal resistance measurements after the charge cycle. And the both felt exactly the same to fly. Having said that, they are both noticably better than any other packs iv flown, the SMC lives up to its hype but the bonka is also just as good.
However one difference is 'build' quality. The bonka feels like a much more quality construction. The SMC looks the same as lumenier packs which iv been running for quite a while and have had many issues with them having the lipo power cables fall off the cells with very little force. I do stress I have not actually had any issue with the SMC yet, its still very new so Im not trashing it. But if I were to pick a reason to choose between them, that would be it.

So thats my thoughs so far, ill report back if there is any notable changes.

I hope this was of some help.
