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.

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
