What is a good RX Battery to use. I have seen them at 4.8v and 6v ?

Five-cell packs like the one below are excellent. Don't get cheap receiver packs, you will be sorry. I like at least 1400 mAh capacity.

I bought a couple nice small lipos. Hope 7.4 is not too much. I used to use a 9V pack on everything...never an issue so I suspect 7.4 will be ok...damn fast steering which may not be good with my driving :)

Jeff I have not used a lipo but have heard you need something else in the system I think to step down the voltage? My memory may be bad and Jays link looks like a great choice.
