Default CX2 LiPO in Mini-T?

I already have a Blade CX2 heli and use Lipo batteries. I was going to get a good charger for them (FMA 4s) , but wondered if the LiPOs would work in the Mini-T I want to get for my kids. If not I have to consider another plan.

So will I have any problems using the E-Flite LiPOs in the Losi Mini-T?

Thanks!

What electronics are you using in the Mini-T?
The lipo battery from the CX2 will not have enough MAH to power the Mini-T.

yes, the CX2 7.4v Lipo and even the CP Pro 11.1v Lipo will work with the stock Mini T electronics! the only skills required are soldering and a brain... you'll have to figure out some type of universal connector, I for one have found Deans Ultra to fit my needs.

simply plug and play! however, if you upgrade your stock Mini T to Lipo's you'll find other break weak spots in the build... bearings to start, they are always good!

Thanks for the answer. I'll stick to my plan then for the 7.2V LiPOs and I'll have to convert all the connectors. I'll also have to get an auto shutoff so that the girls can't run down the LiPOs too low.

Now I've got to splurge for the charger!
