Unfortunately the only 9.6v nimh battery that fits the Echo 1 LMG is the one that comes with it. Not wanting to turn to lipo, I am considering using 8.4v nimh batteries. However 8.4v batteries will lower the ROF to around 12 rps.

So my question is how much of a negative impact will a loss of about 2 rps have on the LMG's effectiveness?
Is the 9.6 a mini or large? Which LMG? Your post is not clear. If you have the echo 1 red star RPK, I know you can fit a 12.8v madbull LFP in there. rate of fire what!?!? lol Anyway, I have run it with a 7.4v lipo
