I am currently using a 150ma 2S pack I got a from a guy at one of the local hobby shops near me. I will find out more about it and see if it can be ordered online anywhere. I have actually put more then 160ma into the pack so I think its really closer to 170 or 180ma. If you remove the shrinkwrap around it it fits easily into the stock battery compartment with no mods to the truck itself.

I have also ordered some 250ma cells but there may be some dremeling required to get them to fit.

thoes cells will be cutting it very close to being good cells . i know i would look for something with better specs. the way c rattings work is 10c means the battery can put out 10x its compasity. so that would be .1x150. to give you 1.5 amps continous.

one way you can tell if this is goo or not. is get a volt meter and see how many amps the motor pulls from the stock pack.

Ouch, lithium-ion AAA's? Those type of cells are usually rated at 2C maximum.

I think a 10C LiPo is plenty for the Micro-T as long as its rated at atleast 150mah's of capacity. Mine remains punchy for the entire run. I asked the guy at the hobby shop to bring in a few so I may have a few extras early next week.

I one I have I've put more then 160mah into while charging so I am thinking they are closer to 170 or 180mah cells.

TheSteve,

I'd like to buy one these servos from you through paypal. I'll send you the money in advance if you need to buy parts and such for putting it together. Thank You.
