byron185 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Hi Guys just after some tips please, got a SCX10 deadbolt 1/24 coming next week, Struggling to find anywhere that sells batteries all sold out everywhere. Any alternative’s out there, don’t want to change wires, straight plug in. Also what upgrades I should do Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone-wolf Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Buy a couple of suitable size lipo`s and swap the connector out, its an easy job to do, if not confident get a person to do it for you, just make sure you dont short the lipo out here are the pre wired plugs https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10X-Mini-Micro-PH-2-0mm-JST-2-Pin-Male-Connector-Plug-Wires-Cables-120mm-UK/153893995842?hash=item23d4cc0542:g:4yAAAOSwkGpdcZOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stimpy Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I got on HobbyKing and found some great alternatives. Went with some 300mah 35/70C Turnigy units that have a much better package size (especially for battery upfront relocation) and are 8g lighter. Just swapped over the connectors... Batts were like £3 each or something daft 👍 These but cheaper when I got them:https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-nano-tech-300mah-2s-35-70c-lipo-pack.html?queryID=9a02df02fa6c12a35056a7b115324338&objectID=47412&indexName=hbk_live_magento_en_us_products Connectors are PH2.0, found them on eBay...

Idid order from the UK branch... Obviously before they shut down... Edit: the site still seems to take things into basket.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
