NiMh
NiMH battery packs for RC: forgiving, affordable power for many models.
NiMH battery packs are a forgiving, affordable way to power many RC models. They handle rough charging better than LiPo and need no storage voltage fuss, which makes them great for beginners and ready-to-run cars.Match the pack voltage and connector to your car, and pick capacity (mAh) for run time. See LiPo packs and chargers in batteries and chargers.
LiPo is lighter and more powerful, NiMH is cheaper and easier to look after. For casual running NiMH is fine, for performance most drivers move to LiPo.
Use a NiMH-capable charger at the recommended rate. NiMH tolerates simple charging far better than LiPo, but a good charger still extends its life.
Store them cool and partly charged. NiMH self-discharges over time, so top them up before use if they have sat for a while.
