What battery packs are you guys running in your transmitters, I know stickman's are pretty popular but are there any lipo's or life batteries around?

I put 8 Duracell 2650 mAH NiMHs in mine and charge thru the built in charging port using my charger set to .2A

Not sure if there is a LiPo specifically for this radio, but a 3S should do as long as it fits in there and you put the right connector on it.

If this fits -

I don't see any reaon that this shouldn't fit -

I don't know what happened to the Protek 3S 3300mah tx lipo they used to sell - I have one in my 3PK and another in my 3PJS which both had been using 8AA cell pacs. They last a long time and weigh noticeably less than the 8 AAs they replaced.

The only other thing I'd consider is 8 AA low self discharge type rechargeables if I had to go that way. They seem to do a lot better than ordinary NiMhs.
