Default Lipo for RC18T

Hello,

I want to start using Lipo with my RC18T, I don't have a lipo charger, and would like to get a relatively inexpensive one.
Also, will need help understanding what is needed to start using lipo cells. Do I have to switch out the XPS speed controler

Mods I have purchased
19t reedy mini max, battery holder, front bumper, on-road tires.

I will be looking to get sime MIP CVD's and carbide for the diff, along with the AE blue shock set.

Let me know what info you can provide so I get the right stuff the first time.

thanks - CH

Go to horizon and look up a 2s 2100mah Thunder power lipo. They are the ticket for this car. A balancer and charger are recommended. There are too many choices out there. Try horizon for that too. I guess it all depends on how much you want to spend. I have a lipo charger that is 200.00 plus the 100 balancer. I also have one that was 35.00 and balancer was 15.00. The more you spend the more you get.....very obvious in this hobby.

Thanks for the reply,

Will these lipo's run with the stock xps speed control, or do I need to upgrade?
