Default Yes you can..

as long as voltage is the same and the discharge rate times the battery Amperage is higher than the original it will work just fine.

yes, if it will fit. I don't know anything about the Trex 600, but if it can use a 2S (7.4v) pack for electronics, then any 2S pack will work as long as it fits on the heli and has the correct connector. More mah (usually) means a bigger pack. Some may come with different connectors so just look out for that. I think most rx packs come with JST.

Keep your voltage at 7.4, mah will only effect center of gravity because the battery will weigh more. It will give you longer flight time.
