is it worth it to go lipo in a stadium truck? the lipo pack i wont to get is a 3s and weights only 198g, but to do lipo would cost so much more. the pack is $89 the low voltage thing is $26 and the balancer for the pack is $38 so thats like $175 with shipping. or if i wonted to save alot of money i could just through like 9 cells in there and get the same voltage and power basicly for about 90 bucks. the down fall is the weight. 9 cells is like 3 times the weight of that pack. how much of a differance in that going to make in speed and hadling?
