Good points, but a 1 year old NiMh still performs as good as a brand new lipo? That IS a lifetime in RC!

I was looking to get an edge back with some new packs and went lipo. Now I find out they are really not any better than my old and flat 12 month old NiMhs.

Saving time and money doesnt mean much when the guys I race with have a performance advantage because they stayed with NiMh and I didnt. No where in the results does it say that I was able to charge my pack up in 10 minutes instead of 30 does it?

I guess I can still use them to practice.
