Li-PO or NiCd Pros and Cons
I am new into electric flight and need some advice. From what I read Li-Pos are lighter but more expensive than NiCds and require a specially designed charger. If I read the specifications correct a 2Ah Li-Po is about 10-15 oz lighter than a comparable NiCd. If the weight saving is that large I assume the power requirements for take-off and climp would also translate into lower currents and longered flight endurance.
I s this reasoning correct? What are the cons with Li-Pos contra NiCd?
