WHERE CAN I FIND BATTERY FOR MY PLANE????
Hello everyone.
Actually i bought a freeflight electric r/c plane from a local shop here in India. Its a micro sized plane. (similiar to this: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXDGV0&P=0 ). It has a charger which requires 2 pencils cells. The charger then has to be inserted in the plane for 45 seconds for the battery to be charged (the battery is inside the plane).
But mistakenly i left the charger for hours, which eventually burnt the battery! Now after opening the plane, am able to take out the battery by de-soldering it from the PCB. And the battery is 1/4 AAA 50 Mah. Am surprised to see its small size. And am looking everywhere on internet but unable to find it. Can anyone plz let me know where can i buy such a battery??
Thanks.
Gautam.

Hi!
How many cells are there...2, 4, 6 or?
also what voltage 2,4V or 4,8V or more ?
You can solder togher a pack if you buy separate cells. Nicel cadmium or NiMah cells are easily found in most electronic stores like this below or even at hobby shops.

man personaly illd find a nicd cell and stick it in there. itll give you longer flight times(maybe AAA cell) and basic charger will charge it
