new batterypack option
I am going to get some of these to try. Have not seen 1/2 AAA before... 350ma sounds good for a lot of flying. no weight listed, but it must be lighter than the 3/4 aaa cells.

The price is right, too!
I have used a lot of the other NiMH batteries they make and they have all been very good.

RE: new batterypack option
It could easily be a misprint. This site has a fair bit of wobbly English and mistakes. All of the batteries I have bought from them have been excellent, their newer <2600mah> AA NiMH have very low internal resistance compared to any other high capacity NiMH AA cells I have- I would image these are made using the same chemistry and so would at least be worth the $5 gamble. I`d use these (after testing) just because they come from this company.
I didn`t see the weights- thats about 5grams for anyone like me who comes with metric wiring.

RE: new batterypack option
Are you still hasselling me because my last two planes didn`t make unlimited vertical? If so, lookout man, I have made some big advances in the engine performance department. My micro turbo-superchargers are running well now, though it means I can`t use a pipe, and I had to go to needle roller big ends and cranks supported at both ends.
Actually these 1/2AAA packs should weigh only slightly more than 1/3AAA packs, but with much more capacity (about 2 1/2 - 3X)

JM, Your DF'd planes are in their own category for coolness.
The 350s are a nice compromise and work good with my el-cheapo field charger. I'm totally convinced that 150s are just too much work for a nice lazy day at the field, I mostly go with 300s now.
