I ran some 2/3a 7.4v saddle packs on my rig for a while...ran them velcro strapped to the rear axle. They worked quite well and worked with the stock electronics with no issue. If you can get them cheap, I would say go for it...especially if they're saddle packs, since you could mount them on the back axle and lower all your electronics in the chassis. However, if they're more than $15 for the battery, I would suggest just going lipo, especially if you're planning on getting multiple batteries. You can get some small 2s lipos for less than $10 per battery...the only big expense is a charger, and those can be had for around $50.
