I just wanted it becase of run time and it dont flatten out like nimh 30 min of run time well actually 32 is a lot of fun also have a 160 mah battery I bought from only batteries it gets about 8 min with the atomic but that isnt even close, I run lipo on my rc 18 t and we run 18 min mains you just cant compare that to anything, may try a voltage regulator to reduce the voltage though cause we race ours on a carpet track

When you say flatten out do you mean how it "loses some power". See i would like something that stays constant, like how fast it is when you first start, but all the time. Is lipo what I am looking for? I heard there are more cons than pros and it costs a lot more for all the stuff you need?

yep nimh and nicad loose their peak voltage quick usually within 30 seconds lipo keeps it voltage consistent if a pack is 7.4 volts it will never fall below that voltage plus you get way more run time usually at a way lower weight, the losi lipo pack weighs 14 grams less than the stock pack and that adds up considering you can totally deck a micro t out in aluminium and only gain six grams just with the lipo to be super safe when you feel like its slower its time for a park and charge per directions the charger it came with is real nice to charges in about 15 minutes and thats sweet considering you can go for 30 but if you really want to see what the little sucker can do just buy it its worth the 40 bucks just be careful landing on throttle off of jumps and buy the wheelie bar I just ordered it yesterday squeeze full on and it is a sliding truck more damage to my body in 2 packs than in three months this is the ultimate basher or for fun upgrade with no mods to do I just bought a video camera when I am off on sunday I will try to post some videos sick and nasty little micro truck videos of it outrunning my revo and my rc 18 t this thing is a animal without a cage small enough
