I am wondering what people are using for replacement batteries for a Futaba 7UAF Super. I'm sure there is something better out there than the stock battery. Plus I'm hoping to get rid of that 9Volt type connection.

Thanks in advance.

Check the Radical rc web site and pick out the correct battery for your TX.

About 1100 ma should be about right,but have you considered the fact that your wall wart charger wont be able to handle a battery that large and you are going to need a new variable charger sooner or later?

Thanks for the help, I'll check it out.

A higher capacity battery pack won't be a problem. I will soon have a triton charger.

Hi Chris: I went to an 1100 snap pack in mine and I went from sometimes having to charge during the days flying to able to last all day with lots left.

Even better, there are now 2100 ish NiMH out that will fit into a standard size pack. They last all month

Where'd you buy that snap pack? Radical RC?
