rc and cheap doesnt do together. you get what you paid for. either you get cheap china stuff and it last for like 2 weeks (if that) or you get a used battery, and its fried a cell. save you the hassle and spend the extra 10-20 bucks. trust me, youll enjoy that rustler alot more.

if you want a decent name brand and a good price try the venom batteries from towerhobbies.com they are the cheapest "good" nimh batteries i've seen.

Check ProMatch Racing - they have good cells at reasonable prices.

my local hobby store carries nothing but venom. I think they have a lifetime warranty right?
