RE: Tamiya Spare Parts
Thanks for the headsup. Anyone has a panzer IV manual? What are the parts needed to make the suspension, idler/sprocket, roadwheels (basically the whole running gear minus the hull and gearbox) Reason being I am looking for spare parts to make a custom tank so any help is greatly appreciated.

RE: LiPo VS. NiMh ??
IMHO you should go for LiPos as they pack more punch and hold their charge well even after few weeks unlike NiMh.

RE: explosion!
So far have only seen Lipo explosion but not NIMH or NICd. I guess you've got to be very careful with whatever batteries we are using as they are all potential risk.

RE: lipo pack?
IMHO i think even if they can put out the amps, it wouldn't last for too many cycles though. Maybe try 1 pack and see how it goes if you really like to get it.
