The first thing that you will find is that you need better batteries and charger, for these i would recommend going to Hobbyking and buying them online. 2 of these http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...Lipo_Pack.html will keep you motoring for an hour or more.

Best bet for you on a charger tho, would be to go to a local store and buy one, then have a good talk with the sales guy about using, charging and taking care of LIPO batteries, get them to walk you though how to configure the charger as well. LIPO is great, but if you are not careful with them, you can damage them or worse, cause a fire by charging them wrong.
