Default Strange Battery Question

Would it be ok to use my lipo battery from my blade cx2 untill i order a lipo? It is a 2cell 800mah Lipo. i would just cut off the normal plug and solder on a deans plug, but leave the charging one so i can still use the balancing charger that came with the blade. Thanks for any help.

22C 800mah means its good for 17.6 amps. I wouldn't do it.

If you don't know much about Lipo maybe its best to stay with ni-mh. Lipo can be dangerous if not treated right.
