i read most can only 75-100 cycles per life. is that correct?  that's very short lifecycle compared to nicd's where i've cyclc'ed them literally hundreds of times already.  i wonder if ORCA has a longer lifespan.. |
you should be able to do 100+ cycle on the pack, depends on how do you cycle the pack, since the a regular motor doesn't give too much load to the ESC and battery pack, thus its lifespan should be pretty long...
regarding comparing to nicd, the main difference is the capacity, battery memory and ease of maintenance, if you take those facts into consideration, you will find the lipo battery is a much better battery...
