Status: offline 		I'm using a Zippy or Turnigy 2200mah battery fits well in the A9. I cut the connector off of the stock battery pack & soldered on a new connector on the other end to fit the new lipo battery. Works for me.

Status: offline 		I was searching posts for installing a LIPO into my Hitec A9 TX. Saw your note. I have a spare Turnigy 7.4 V 2200 MAH battery and would like to modify for my TX. Is there a way to get rid of the large wire on the LIPO, or can I come off of the balancing jack to hook into my tx, any pictures help full.

Thanks

Never use the balancing tap for connection other than the intended purpose - a very weak link in the chain...
Aurora & Optima RX - Battery Compartment Size, Alternate Batteries and 2S Lipo
Best to use an adapter, using plug off original battery (unless kept as a back up) and a Deans plug or for your Lipo as attached. 
This also facilitates easy removal/replacement for charging on your standard Lipo charger.
 (and prevents polarity reversal when in a hurry at a later date.)
Hitec Aurora, Eclipse, Flash, Optic, Prism series - Lipo and Field / Fast Charging (also has detail of battery plug)


When fitting a 2S Lipo or alternate battery.
Increase or decrease the thickness of the rubber pad attached inside the battery cover. This to ensure a snug fit which
a. Holds the battery in place to prevent damage to wires or connector.
b. Ensures battery cover does not slip off during use.
[A123 pack cannot be used due to both size and the lower voltage]
