RE: Replacing 9C battery ?
If you don't mind doing a little soldering, you can buy these 1800mAh NiMH AA for ~$1.25 each:

8C TX pack would cost exactly $10. I've check them with my Triton cycler and they do indeed put out a little over 1850mAh at the typical TX current draw.
I am sure there are other sources out there, but this one is where I've been buying mine lately.

If you are not into the sodering thing Radical sells a Sanyo pack for the Futaba 9C that is rated at 1650 MAh 9.6 NIMH that slips right in. They are located at http://radicalrc.secure-mall.com/sho...20&cart=199700
Oh buy the way it IS more expensive than the sodering route. The thing that makes it worth it either way you go is you will end up with about 3x the capacity of most factory packs.

I'll chip in with my vote for RadicalRC also. Dave's always provided me with *excellent* service and I use his transmitter and receiver packs exclusively now without a single problem.
