To charge lipos, almost all are rated at 1c. That means for a 5000mah battery = 5.0a, 6100mah = 6.1a.
sorry to disagree but from nimh pack to lipo is like changing your motor or fitting a turbo!.i have run 2 different brushed setups with lipos with no problems at all but i only run them on 25c rated battery not bigger more expensive ones.mate changed his nimh pack to a lipo in his maverick strada 4wd and couldnt beleive the performance difference,again running 25c lipos.
