The DX6...it uses a 600Mah Nicad, which is 8 cells. i believe the DX6i is the successor of this radio, which only uses 4 AA's....

People have successfully modified the DX6 for longer run time with a part swapout of the Voltage regulator (DE-SW033 voltage regulator)...I assume spektrum (horizon hobbies) have since included this newer\better\faster\stronger regulator in the current line of electronics, among other changes....
