Yeah if your only running nimh, doesnt matter what controller your running! if it wont work it wont work!

On that note though, I think it would work if you were using quality cells. Ive seen brushless systems go on good gp and intellect cells and in a stadiums and such they rival lipos (ie too much power to actually use for anything but speed runs lol)

In a big truck though, I think lithium tech is a must. I say go lipo or a123. Lipo isnt really as dangerous as they make it out to be - its just because they required a different charger (technically a lot simpler...) to nimh and nicd. I've never seen a lipo do anything bad in person, but have seen nickel cells explode pretty bad under normal running conditions...
