I just picked up the Caldera 3.0:

I am looking to do some upgrades.
Already thinking about this lipo:

and this charger:

Would also like to upgrade to metal servos and either a larger gas tank or run a secondary tank. Suggestions would be great.
If there are other upgrades I should do please throw them out there.
EDIT: Do I need an adapter for the charger to go to a house outlet? Will it work with my car battery? What is the expected charge time and run time with this set up?
I know lots of questions. I'm a newb to this world. I grew up building Jeeps not RC cars haha.
I'm a little confused. You have a Caldera 3.0, Nitro right? What are the lipo's for? Yes you can put a bigger tank with some modification. Alloy steering knuckles are a must for the Caldera, leave everything else plastic. That charger needs a 12v power supply or a car battery for power.
