I was wondering if I can just connect a battery pack to my radio in place of 4 AA's for more power to my hitecs. What pack do you recommend assuming I can do this. I saw these cool trinity ones, nitro metal hybrid, theres this "hump" looking one that interests me. (traxxas nitro sport)

You won't really get anymore power but your run times will be much longer if you do get a 6volt rechargable pack. Ni-cads are about 20-30 bux then you need a 6v charger for them. The nimh ones are about the same price but then you need a charger to charge nimh cells correctly (it gets more compilcated) if money is no object get the trinity cells and the integy pro charger (about 170 total) but the charger will charge anything also(4 volts 6 volts 7 volts and nimh cells).
