Will Lipo power drop off if the pack heats up?

[joeling]

I think I read somewhere that a pack should not exceed 50deg C.

I don't think there should be a huge voltage drop towards the end of the run. Power drop is noticeable but not should not be drastic. Usually by that time, LVC kicks in.

In addition, also read somewhere in these forums that to conserve the life of a lipo, it is better to set the LVC a little higher. There is not much inpact to the capacity of the lipo. I ran my PQ 5S 5000mah in an X2 until LVC kicked in set at 3.1V per cell. I managed to put pack more than 4900mah during charging (less than 100mah penalty in this case).
