Don’t say that, I just ordered 4 SMC batteries,lolSave your money, SMC not that great in my opinion. I have 4 SMC packs and they are the slowest packs I have, 3-4 mph slower than same cell/mah packs from HobbyPower and Turnigy I also have.
You'll be in great shape. SMC are fine for so many. I like the 6s packs I have hard and soft case and they perform well for the cost.Don’t say that, I just ordered 4 SMC batteries,lol
Thanks for the insight, I am new to this hobby and all this new information can get a little much, lol... the gensacearespammers 5000 3s Lipo 50c was only $10 more than the smc that I purchased and the Same for the 4s lipos I bought.You'll be in great shape.

Lately I like Turnigy HD packs from Hobby King. Impressed with the punch up and I find they have a long enough power curve. Which to me means that they show lots of power for the longest time charged. I have a 4s and 3s of these.

Essentially, I'm pretty convinced that as long as we shop around the same price and buy reputable brands, they're all pretty much the same .... Some seem better than others, some last longer, some seem to punch harder... but for longevity, gensacearespammers is tops for me and Floureon is weakest (at least in the ones I own.)
My Floureon packs perform(ed) quite well but they don't seem to be able to last much longer.... though it's been almost two years and I abuse my batteries equally.

I use that Turnigy Nano-Tech Plus battery in my Arrma Typhon 6S and it fits very well in that. I haven't modified the battery tray or anything either BTW. Maybe compare the battery size of the Typhon to the Kraton before you make up your mind.Armma write maximum size of 1 6S or 2 3S: 158 mm. X 48 mm. X 70 mm.
And I have looked for this Turnigy Nano-Tech Plus 6S 5000 mAh 70C, and it's immediately 1 mm. wider than Arrma says are maximum size, but are anybody sure that it will fit Arrma Kraton V3?: https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-nano-tech-5000mah-6s-70c-lipo-pack-w-xt-90-hr-tech.html
