Lipo can only be used with an ESC that excepts Lipos.... So for now with the stock ESC i would get this Battery http://maxamps.com/proddetail.php?pr...ll-Odd&cat=144 Its a 7 cell so 8.4v more power , as for a charger a great charger are the Tritons Ive got 3 of em and love them, here is a link to towers for the Triton Jr works just as good as the big Triton http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMAH9&P=7
thanx for the help but will this 7 cell battery fit in the rc 18t?
you do need to do a little filing on the battery strap posts, or, you can disconect the cell, and move it on top of the rest of them forming a "hump pack" which is best, also if you want a lipo, get a 2s lipo and watch the volts, for airplanes I know that they make "battery monitors" that read every cell and slow down then stop the throt soo you don't overdischarge the battery...... ya, not pretty stuff
