Default Lipo in starter box

I've got an SMD starter box which suggests using 14.4v battery (2 nimh stick packs). Is there any reason not to use one of my 4s lipo packs from my elec 8th instead, it won't burn anything out will it?

i use one (or 2 x 4900 sticks) in all my boxes no problems at all, just remember if u have an internal glow start or similar they can drain the pack so unplug when not in use

I have been running a 4s lipo in mine for over a year now with no issues.

I bought a 4s Lipo of Ebay, Hong Kong, cheap, and it started the car once - then went up in smoke... its now in the bin, expensive mistake. I am going to have a Gel Cell in it by this weekend.
