Ditto, I run the large NoBS packs in my 8U and 9Z and can pretty much
run a whole weekend without charging the Tx. I can definately fly all
day without worrying about charging the Tx. I also use their Rx packs
in my nitro helis and they are built very tough. Never had a problem
even with some hard nose in crashes. Only real disadvantage is that
the wal wart charger becomes useless for charging the Tx battery (too
low amperage) and you really need a good NiMH peak charger to not
abuse the pack.
