Well, personally i'm very anti LiPo. Nothing to do with the voltage. At the moment, there is little or no development in the LiPo RC market (at least not the development that we can all see in the NiMh market). However, i've spoke to a few poeple in the know and they assure me that if the development was required (i.e they were actually used for racing) then that development would be at a pace that we have never seen before. I said this before - and i believe Mark C started that thread as well.
What i will say though, is that i have run LiPo back to back with IB NiMh cells, and i have to say i didn't notice a difference. In fact, if i'm really being honest, i think new ish Ib's are probably faster. This is a point that was confiremd by a friend of mine at my locak club last week. He's been running LiPo for ages, but bought a couple of packs of NiMh as he needed them for a BRCA meeting.
