RE: li-po question
I would bet they would work fine because the stock battery on the axe cp is 10.8v NiMH, and a lipo starts at 12.6v and goes down to about 9 to 9.6v depending on how you want to drain it. It probably will make your tail motor last a most likely insignificant amount of time less because of the marginally higher voltage.
what's your comparision between the axe cp and the blade cpp?

Vito032,
Yes you can use the E-flite batteries from the Blade series, thing to consider is the connector to the heli. The E-flite batteries have a JST connector and the battery for the Axe CP is a Deans connector... You would have to change the connectors, not hard and inexpensive... See Picture of lipo battery for the Axe..

RE: li-po question
that pic looks like it doesn't have a balancing lead? just a JST lead and a deans lead? is that right?
if that is the case, then you should be able to use it... otherwise do what choppers said =)
