i run 2S lipo's. but i still also run nimh and even nicd's from yesteryear. :D

the thing about the older chemistry is dat u can charge them and keep them in the charged state. just peak it before use for 5-10min tops to get max power.

lipo, u cant leave them fully charged or they start puffing up.. so very inconvenient during the weeknights when i just want to motor my rc car around the track a few times.. :ugh:

but they heavy.. :ugh:

funny thing i learned while reviving my old rc cars was that they were designed to run with the older chemistry's so id have to add weights if i was to run lipo's..

I just looked at that site. Choosing the right battery is so hard when you build crap on your own. Weight, discharge rate, voltage n sh!t. My goal I s 20 mins of flight time and be right around 3 lbs. I am still toying with the idea of running two smaller batteries equaling the same or more power and be lighter, thus maximizing flight time.

The Max weight limit or my frame is 5 lbs and I want to put a few accessories on it. Camera, lights, and maybe a gimbal.
