You know of only two, perhaps those of us telling you that the issue is weight might know of more? And, perhaps, that means we are answering your question correctly by saying that LiPo has no current future in 12th until it solves the weight and size issues?
Just because a technology works in one area, does not mean it works in every area. LiPo is a technology that works replacing NiMh as a power source. However, from a handling point of view it doesn't work! In Off-Road, everyone over here is having to add weight to the car to retain handling. In TC, they are also adding weight to make it work.
I suppose we are a bit short with some of these replies, so apologies. However, when we tell people it won't work, we get the never-ending replies telling us that LiPo is the future and it must work. Please accept that LiPo as a technology is not the future for pan cars.
