I tried saddle lipos in my X11.. they dont fit, not due to the size of the pack but due to the shape... where as a NIMH batteries are rounded and fit in the curvature of the chassis, the lipo saddles are virtually square..
Therefore they cant be mounted as foward in the chassis as the NIMH and have to sit further back, (unless you dremel out the chassis, but i DONT recommend this)
Plus as stated, the car handles better with stick pack lipo...
Hope this helps,
Tom
