I just got a silver dagger for 50p at a jumble sale good condition no control with it
but a rebound or mutator control will work it.

bargain for 50p if it works and the controller might do mate aint had the cars yet

does the 9.6 nmh batteries add to overall speed of these r/cs

I am not too sure if they add to the overall speed but the Nmh batts that i use are rated at
2200mah they last about an hour depending on how much i use the turbo function.

ye a bit more speed but gives it a nice power boost more than anything else

just read this again where u oning about aa batterys to a 9.6 pack then it would be like i said above but if ur oning about 9.6 tyco standard packs to a 9.6 ni mh pack then it does a bit not alot tho i do use dickies turbo 9.6v ni mh 1300s bought em on ebay 2 for 10 pounds just last twice as long as a standard bat i get about 20 min in speed gear on the fast traxx where ur lucky to get about 8 min on a standard tyco pack

Sounds like the ni mh batteries are better. Why not use those more then? Is there any downside?

theres no down sides as far as i know on ni mh they have no memmory loss can charge em when ever u feel like and come with higher mah ive seen some 9.6v about that come with 2600mah now i bet they pack a punch where as ni cd ur sopose to only charge them when they are just about loosing power keep the life in them or they wont last as long u will notice after awhile it will run for about 5 min ::) when it used to last about 10mins before i use all packs just to stop them losing there memmory
