Default Battery for ballistic ship?

Just wondering what the latest and greatest setup is for receiver batteries on ballistic ships. Still NiMH, or is there a snazzy lithium setup?

Looking for no less than 1200 mah, 5 cell (6 volt). I feel like that would be enough power with the retract servo in the mix.

Please tell me what you are using!

If you are willing to deal with the issues of Lithium based cells, they are probably the lightest. My choice would be A123 cells. Quite light, amazing discharge/charging rates, fairly cheap and much less finicky than lithium. Search RCU for "A123" and you will find a lot of info and a support forum for them.
