Beta Project AK 47 LiPo fitment.

[Outlaw]

Has anyone ran into any fitment issues using stick style LiPos in any AK platform guns? I recently purchased a Magpul Beta Project AK (My first AK Platform) and a ton of upgrades but have not yet purchased batteries as to hearing conflicting information on LiPo fitment for both 7.4 and 11.1v. Most folks are telling me small stick style LiPos will not fit do to a slightly square profile causing the receiver cover not to shut. I figured I would ask the Pros here and get a confirmed answer. Any suggestions or specific brand/model known to fit the AK series platform would be greatly appreciated. Also minor modification will not be an issue to me if you deem it necessary.

I used these in my APS ak74 under the cover and had no issue.

Double check that you have an opening on the barrel end of the receiver, I just pushed it in a little bit and the cover closed just fine.
The lipo is roughly the same size as NIMH stick batteries that most AKs come with.

Thank you Pagan, $6.00 is also amazing! I will order a few, and if they don't fit I have plenty other guns they will fit in.

I use one of these in my cyma 104 AK, and it fits with some fanangling.
