You can use either. I use rechagable nimh's in mine and even though they are less voltage than alkalines they work just fine. Because the CX will be flown in close proximity to the operator it shouldn't make any difference.

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.It has taken so long for a reply I just used Nicads which work fine as I thought they would . I was just concerned with the lower voltage. Thanks again........

Renember, dont drop the Li-Po. Its built super-lightweight! (No sheilding, just ruins)

If you dont want to spend your money on thoes fancy LED "how much electricity is in your battery" just get a watt reader. Renember red is positive and black is negitive. On a CX Li-Po there, on the white connection part there is two small metal parts. Match red with the side the red is on, same with black only the black side. probably set it to 10V AC and if its near 7 its all good. Just a random comment.
