Question about my Tyco RC

by terrorsquad4 on 2010-09-25 02:39:27 UTC

Hello I am new to these forums and I recently got a Tyco RC Tantrum off ebay and I was looking to maybe buy a better battery for it. What batterys work with the Tantrum car? Is a Flexpack compatible with my car? What about the TMH Flexpack?

Thanks for any feedback

i'm pretty sure it is your standard 6v pack you are stuck with.

So is my only option to maybe get a New or newer 6v battery that will hold a charge better?

the 6v packs i have you don't charge you just put new AA's inn them, so you could use better AA's

Any idea where I can get a 6v pack that is made up of AA batteries and how much do they cost?

thanks for the help guys

cool ty! That 30min charger looks good, waiting 4hrs is a pain in the ass.

haha, i guess so, i dont mind it the first one i had was a 9hour charge for a 7.2v. i thought 4hours was fast.
