Default maxAmps discharging rating

I am interested in the LiPo 860 3-cell 11.v.

In the description, its discharging rating is ture 100c.

Does anybody know it is a constant rating or a bust rating?

Thanks

Yes, it's a burst rating. You WILL melt stuff (wires, connectors, etc.) if it was a long term discharge.

Haha, I misspelled, it should be burst.

What is the constant rating? 50c?

I don't think anyone knows for sure, and MA won't say any more than what is printed on the label. I would say you're probably (hopefully) in the ballpark.

It is "True" rating. I haven't been able to wrangle any discharge graphs or resistance specs from them for a long time. Burst would be the closest comparison, but without specifying the time of the rating isn't useful. 1/10th second? 1/1000th second?

I've called a couple times asking for specifics and they say it just works.
