Actually, it isn't the loading that causes issue's with LiPo, it is under/over voltage that is one cause, and the other, is cell damage. The BMFA are very lax in that rule, given that the use of soft LiPo makes a light plane, light, simple as that, no other reason.

No section has to use the EB, but certain sections have adopted the rules, as it allows the transfer of gear from one class to another, far simpler. The bike section would of started running lipo before the EB formulated a list, which is designated really, for 10th scale use. If the bike section wished, and the micro section, they could task the EB with formulating some general rules regarding cells and motors.
