Anyone ever assembled a RX pack using 5 rechargeable NiMh AA batteries? Would it work?
Thanks

If they are the smaller batts they will work.
If you want to do it, get some ib 1400's. I haven't had any problems with them.

I'm looking at the Sanyo 2500mah's. Most of the "normal" size Rx packs go 1400-1600mah. I'm more thinking about the capacity than the size of the pack.

u can use AA's just fine I built quite a few before i started buying them from team helotes. I usually did it 1-2-2 but I hear that 2-1-2 fits better in tighter boxes

That's what's inside the big lantern style batt's!
I'm not worried about the radio box fit, it's more of a capacity desire. I may just go Helotes and be done with it. No chance of frying the cells as I botch the solder job.
