Ok I will try this again (had it posted last night but thread disappeared).

I am slowly getting back into the hobby. I have tried Nitro and while it has it's pluses, it also has some minuses that effect my fun factor. Going to give electric a go. I have old equipment (10 years or so) so I am sure I will need to invest in a charger and packs. My question is which kind? NiMH or Lipo?

Stuff to know:
1) I am a basher, don't plan to race....ever
2) I have a fairly strict budget
3) FUN is the most important

So what do the masses of RCU think?
