Default RE: E-FLIGHT BLADE CP

Open question for anyone who's tried it.
I'm thinking of getting a LiPo to replace the NiMh, and the manual recommends a 3-cel, and changing the motor and adding heat sinks, but does anyone know why I wouldn't want to just switch up to a 2-cel LiPo running around 800 mAh. It's only a .2V difference from the NiMh and with the weight savings should give me a significant improvement in flight time/performance.
I would just buy one and try it but I don't know whether there's some weird switching that goes on in the 4-in-1 that only supports 7.2V and 11.1V, nothing in between.
THanks
(getting better, but I know when I take the training gear off I'll be going through blades every landing like there's no tomorrow).
