I have a rc 18t on the way with a hacker brusless motor
looking into lipo but they seem quite complicated and kinda dangerous
but if i do get lpio battery any suggestion where & what to get.
how much should i expect to pay for a battery and charger....
looking for good info please.

Well I know a good bit about lipo but I don't know much about 1/18s. Check this website www.hobby-lobby.com/polyquest.htm . The 1200, 1500 or 1800 will probably work well IF they fit in an 18, not sure so check the dimensions. These are great batts though.

thans scoob still pretty lost
anybody running lipos on a 18 let me know what ya got
:freak:

You might get some good info on that site.

Scroll down to the Hyperion packs. They are a direct fit in the RC18T/B/MT

Ive seen a 18t that would smoke my truck

there is a lipo for the mini lst/ mini-t.b ut it wont fit in the rc18t.

Any of the Hyperion Lite-Storm packs listed on the page Novellahub linked to (Link (http://www.b-p-p.com/products.php?cat=35)) should fit the RC18B/T/MT. Bishop Power Products also sells a couple of decent / inexpensive LiPo compatible chargers: Hyperion EOS 5i (http://www.b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=d_EOS_5I) for $84 or the Apache S2500 (http://www.b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=d_%23A2500) for $42. I've ordered from BPP twice before and had good experiences both times.

well i got the pro peak charger 29.99 and an electrifly 3s, but it didn't fit. sent it back, going to order the hyperion when i get my refund, thanks novellahub!
What size/mah?

look on ebay... you need a charger tho. Plane chargers do fine.

What size/mah?

2c for racing and 3C ones for bashing/insane runs. Pick any sized mah for what you can afford.

I got an Irate 2cell 10C pack. fits perfectly(cheapbatterypacks.com)
and he'll send it with whatever plug you want for ESC
eventually will need to get a balancer I guess
now i just need to get a power supply and she's rippin.
