RC Batteries
They are able to store larger amounts of power in smaller and lighter packages all while
delivering the power at a fast and steady rate. The older Ni-MH batteries were heavy and didn't
last very long but the new Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are much better. The only major
downfall with LiPo's is that if mistreated, can catch fire, but this is only in extreme cases.
