Whoa calm down, Timbulb.

And Driver86, my argument is that low-cost Li-pos won't give you the same performance as would a top name Li-po (i.e. SMC, Orion, Checkpoint, and the like) during its lifetime. AND, during that shorter lifetime, you won't get as good as performance as you would with expensive, high-quality Li-pos.

Look at it like this: Buying AA dry cells for your transmitter vs. Buying a Li-po pack (high quality!!!!) for your transmitter. At first, if you go with AAs, it may seem like a good idea, but you'll just have to buy more AAs because of their shorter lifespan. Buying a Li-po pack will be the higher cost initially, but it will pay for itself.

Just consider that.
