Default Align 90 class Heli

According to RC Heli mag in the FEB/MAR 2007 issue, Align is developing a 90 class electric Heli..... Cool but how many of us can really afford or justify the battery pack cost for a 90 electric. What do you need, like two 10s lipo pack to power a beast like that for 5 minutes, so... that equates to like $700 in batteries? Thats why Mikado Bionics and Century Ion's don't exactly fly off the shelf.
I am telling you these RC manufactures must know something about whats going to happen to Lipo costs that we don't.
The day I see a 6s1p pack cost $50 I will be screaming for joy!
