Myself and my friend have at least 12 50cc gas planes flying on ONE A123 2300ma battery
Some with 8 servos and smoke systems
Lighter than a ni cad / nimd of that size and have MUCH more power..
We place a 1001N diod in front of the ignition to play it safe...
I ran a similar setup in my Ulti with one A123 pack. I added another set of positve and negative wires to the pack and used another switch for the ignition. I used a Fromeco regulator on the ignition side to step down the voltage. Worked great on 2.4. How far down does the 1001N drop the voltage?
