Not racing lipo's but I had to bring 3 large 18v 5000mAh Lion drill batteries home from the USA recently and asked at check in. In short the above advice is still correct. All batteries (including ones in the car) must be in your hand baggage and almost certainly will be checked at the scanners. Cover the terminals with tape and you will be fine. I had a guy at the scanner query it saying they were not permitted but I stood my ground and he checked with a supervisor and I was cleared to travel.
