Hi Paul, you havnt really asked this question in the right part of the site but never mind. We will hijack the thread momentarily.

Personally I wouldnt use Lipoly's in a Giant scale aircraft as the RX power source. I Do however use Li-ions. Li-ions are much more robust than Lipo's. Li-ions arent used in electric flight as they are not able to deliver the current that lipos can, but for powering our 35 -44% radio systems they are perfect!!


If I could get my Li-ions out of the model I would charge them outside the model, however they are difficult to get too so I charge them inside the model. As for lipos being charged in the model......... I wouldnt go there!
