I found out that the power pack of the 10x is ruined, So I decided to build my own and install it in the battery case.

I bought duracil AA rechargeables (2300mah NiMH) and built the pack, however, normal AA batteries are slightly larger in diameter than the originals. and on the (+) side there's a bump..

so couldn't fit the pack in the case.. does anyone know if those smaller packs found in the original pack are available somewhere for sale?

Thanks.

Ali,
Since your using Li-Ion rx packs. Go ahead and get Li-Ion pack for your transmitter.

If you want nimh. Contact Dave Thacker at Radial RC.

david, its not for me, I use futaba 9c (and LOVE it), and yes I do need Li for my Tx.. but this 10x is my friend's (Bonsai -- Dean)

thanks for the link, this is a new one.. if he stocks them batteries that'll be great.

I fit a 2100 nimh pack in mine. it was tight and I had to remove the shrink from around the pack but its been working fine for almost a year now. anything bigger than that will not fit into the battery container for the 10x without extensive modifications, ie grind the battery case up.

well dean gave me two bad battery packs for the 10x, I might as well modify one of the cases to fit the big duracil ones.
