Crane and SOPMOD stocks are everywhere, and they share a problem: no single space big enough for a normal stick battery. What they have instead are two narrow side tubes either side of the buffer. A nunchuck pack is built for exactly that - the cells are split into separate ultra-slim sticks, joined by a lead, so each one drops into a tube.
Each stick here measures just 15 x 7 x 113mm, which is what lets it go where a solid pack cannot. Splitting the cells also leaves the centre buffer tube free, so your wiring, MOSFET or ETU has somewhere to live rather than fighting the battery for room.
These are 30C packs rather than the usual 20C, and that matters more than the number suggests. A higher discharge rating means the motor can draw current the instant you pull the trigger, so the gearbox completes its cycle faster and semi-auto feels sharper. That headroom is what a high-torque motor or a heavier spring actually wants.
The 7.4V splits into two sticks and is the safe, smooth choice for most guns. The 11.1V splits into three and delivers a markedly faster rate of fire, but belongs in a gun built to take it. Both in Deans or Mini Tamiya to match your wiring.
Which one do I need?
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| 7.4v 1450mAh 30C | Two slim sticks. Smooth, gearbox-friendly power with high-discharge punch. The sensible default for a crane-stock M4. |
| 11.1v 1450mAh 30C | Three slim sticks. Noticeably faster trigger and rate of fire, for guns with a MOSFET and upgraded internals. |
| Deans - T Plug | For guns rewired to Deans, usually upgraded or MOSFET-equipped builds. |
| Mini Tamiya | For guns still on factory wiring, which is most stock AEGs. |

Good to know before you buy
Made for crane, SOPMOD and PDW stocks with hollow side tubes - check yours are actually clear, as some are solid or partly filled. If your stock has a free centre buffer tube instead, a stick pack will suit better. For much longer run-time in the same nunchuck format, see the Li-Ion nunchucks.
Frequently asked questions
What is a nunchuck battery?
A pack split into two or three slim sticks joined by a lead, rather than one solid block. It exists so the cells can be threaded into the narrow side tubes of a crane or SOPMOD stock.
Will it fit my stock?
If your stock has hollow side tubes either side of the buffer tube, yes. Crane, SOPMOD and most PDW stocks do. Solid or foam-filled stocks want a stick pack in the buffer tube instead.
Why 30C rather than 20C?
Discharge rating is how fast the pack delivers current. 30C gives the motor more on demand, sharpening trigger response and helping guns with high-torque motors or heavier springs.
How does it compare to the Li-Ion nunchuck?
Same format, different priorities. These are 30C LiPo for punch and response. The Li-Ion versions run up to 6000mAh for endurance but only 10C, so less outright power.
Which connector do I need?
Match your gun. Factory AEGs are normally Mini Tamiya; rewired and MOSFET builds are usually Deans.
