# of cells with NiMh
I very new to brushless I know nothing! I see people using 11.1v lipos why can't you use more cells with NiMh to get 11.1v? I understand that you would have to make it fit... but would it work the same?

RE: # of cells with NiMh
I run 7 cell Gp1100 nimh packs, I bought two at [link]http://www.cheapbatterypacks.com[/link] for I believe it was around 42 dollars, and they make my mamba comp-x in my MSF fly, fast as anyone would ever need a 1/18 to go, around 50's. so I got two good packs made how I wanted them to fit nicely for less than one li-po that is harder to fit, worse to charge(not really just gotta be more careful)...dont get me wrong I love li-po for my 3-D foam planes, but in a car I dont think they are needed at all...just my two cents
