Lipo in my DX3R?

[mistercrash]

I ran with the same four AA Duracells in my DX3R all last race season. They showed 6V for the first couple weekends and then showed between 5.8/5.5 for the longest time. I still have them in the radio and just used it today, they are now at 4.8. Time for a new set. I got Sanyo 2700 mah nimh cells to use for this race season.

Well with a lipo i can get more runtime and voltage for the same or less weight compared to my 4 AA 2500mah batteries.

I agree that you will, I was just stating that the DX3R is not power hungry and 4 AAs last a long time. But if you use your RC a lot and for long periods of time then go ahead with the lipo upgrade. Be sure to post pics of your set up.

Yea, it is uncommon for me to use my radio 5 or more hours at a time.
