I recently bought a s033g rc helicopter. Batteries dont last to long. It has a 2 cell 7.4v 1500mAh batterie, and I was wondering if i could put a 3 sell 11v battery in? I was wondering if anybody has done this before and what they used?

Why would you want to use a more expensive, heavier, higher voltage lipo that probably won't even fit without modifying battery compartment and burn out the ESC/power plant. Try another quality 2S 1500mAh battery and handle/use it with TLC. A 1500mAh pack should provide sufficient flying time unless it is a cheapy brand that has also been mistreated.

The Syma s033g was supposed to ship with an 11.1 v, 1100 mAh battery...according to Amazon and other places it's sold.

Apparently some folks who bought the chopper got shortchanged a bit with an 7.4 v battery.
