    Battery box

    Now that all the new receiver NiMH batteries seem to have the Tamiya (standard) plug for charging, I'd like Redcat or someone else come out with a new receiver battery box top which holds the plug so you don't need to lift up the body, unscrew the receiver box top, pull and then replace the...

    Hello, I was just about to go on my fourth tank of gas, plugged in my charger and attached the battery. Soon after I saw smoke coming from the battery/battery wire, I disconnected the charger immediately. I am not sure if the battery is still good so I won’t be attempting to find out via use on...

    Venom Hump Battery pack...

    It has the j plug connector to connect straight to the rx. Not to the on/off switch. I guess I'm going to radio shack to see if they have the male plug I need. Or...

    Battery box body pin mod

    So I know I can't be the only one that hates the screws for the battery box so I came up with this. I drilled the holes to accept body posts so I can open and shut the lid with body pins. Should be much easier.
