When I got back into RC I looked at the batteries available as it all had changed. I decided to go with Life and A123 batteries. Now I’m building a few foamy aircraft and starting to look at Lipo’s. Here is my starter setup. I made up 2 3 cell A123 packs wired in series. It gives me just under 20 volts. Plenty of power and battery life lasts a long time. Life batteries I charge in the airplane and just leave them as is wherever. Lipo requires special handling and care when charging or leaving for non use; storage. They require that you remove the battery for charging. I’m new with Lipo batteries so others may comment. I’m learning a lot about Lipo batteries.
