i am assuming this is your first rig since you dont have a battery, i would recomend getting a nmhi battery at first cause of how easy they are to use. i use a venom 5000 mah. battery

Got a charger? It's NiMH by the way. Nickel-Metal Hydride. |

Yep, I think radio shack sells GP3300 packs for like 15 bucks. Check there, or get the venom pack and a decent charger. Get like an onyx 210, its basic and cheap. Will get the job done.

A wall wart? It'll take forever but if you buy a 7.2 volt NiMH battery it will work.

Yep. Get me some numbers off the charger and I can tell you how long it will take to charge the battery you get. Looking for amp output specifically. Might look like Mah out. |

And my vote is for NiMH as well. If you are new to the hobby, or on a budget, NiMH are safe, great run times, and no danger of screwing them up. | |
