|  Nihm vs. Lipo
I know this is a newbie question but I'm running a rooster crawler esc on my honcho and was wondering if there's going to be a lot of difference in power between a 6-cell 5000mah nihm battery and a 2s lipo????

Power? No. You will lose a bunch of weight, so the power to weight ratio will be better, possibly making it appear to have more power. |

ok thanks. Now I was looking at some 2s lipo and it says 30c,40c and some say 150c and I'm confuse. What does it mean when it says 30c or 40c? Oh does a let say 1800mah nihm have the same run time as 1800mah 2s lipo?

basicly the C rating is how much "juice" the pack can give the esc, 30c is the highst you will realy need, and a 1800mah lipo will run longer.
