Well, MA give out lipos to the magazines. So the magazines use them. I can imagine they give CC lipos too.

MA lipos are not the big problem, it is MA themselves. I have had a few decent packs from them that actually work, and their QC has generally gone up over the years. Yes they are still overpriced, and yes there are better lipos out there. But as Chris says, they will get the job done.
