My replica comes with a NiMH battery but everyone talks about LiPo. Is it worth switching? I'm a bit wary because I've read that LiPo needs to be handled carefully. What would you recommend for a beginner?

Always LiPo, NiMH batteries you can forget about and be more careless with them but they discharge faster over time, they're bigger so in certain replicas they might not fit properly and also offer slower trigger response. What happens with LiPo? If a LiPo reaches 0, goodbye battery, you'd have to be careful not to kill it, personally it's never happened to me, you get home, charge the battery, go and play with it and when you're done you make sure to take it out of the replica, take it home and charge it again, if you do this you'll never have any problems.
In summary, always LiPo and never let it discharge completely or leave it abandoned in your replica for months and everything will be fine.
