Revo_Rash, good idea. If I end up at the LHS today I'll bring the battery and see if they can check it. I do plan on getting a lipo, and have spent the better part of a week trying to decide what setup to get. I can deal with and justify the cost of the battery, but all the other stuff, charger, balancer, power supply, myriad of connectors, pieces and parts to marry them all into a charging system is a bit overwhelming and hard to justify. It would appear I'm going to have to spend as much on a power solution for the Axe as I did for the Axe itself. I'm probably going to go with the TP1320 that so many here have touted, just don't know beyond that yet. I like the price of the Mega Power batteries, but I've read some less than encouraging posts about those. Thanks for your input; it all helps.
I can attest to that. I bought a $99 Mini-T and put a $130 Bl setup in it. only to find that the stock even Custom Nimah's were no match for the system. I've yet to buy a Balancer or any of the other stuff you mentioned except for the charger. My Li-Po pack cost me around $45 Charger was $50 and I had to buy a DC Converter box for an additional $60. Also that little connector you see there is home made. I just snipped the end of the stock battery pack and soldered a regular Ultra deans connector on. But here a couple pics of the stuff. As you can see the Heli is well balanced, and even more balanced than with the stock battery I think.
