Hence why you might need full size Lipo to keep higher voltage.
That's exactly it, because you're on full throttle a lot more and even then acceleration isn't stunning you notice the drop. Also they tend to be geared high, which draws a few extra amps, exaggerating the issue of acceleration when a little down on voltage.
