Default REPLACING BATTERY
I would like to replace the NiMH battery here
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...4&I=LXGBM7&P=K

with one of these lipos for longer battery life per charge. Can any of these safely replace the NiMH?

B) http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMDN0&P=K
C) http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMDM8&P=K

The NiMH battery is a 8.4V and the lipos are 7.4V. Is that a big enough difference to matter?

It will be powering a 550 size inboard motor in a Vista EP ARF Sailplane.
