Question. What if any modifications are needed to the HL electronics to run a Lipo battery pack? Will they work with the RX18 board after changing the battery plug to a dean's? Thanks.

You only have to change the tamiya connector on the power lead

The RX18 will handle most battery packs just need the connector changing and maybe mods to battery compartment to make if fit.

I run one tank on a 9.6v 8cell and works great proving the RX18 can handle the increased voltage.
