Well I am a beginner jut like you.(I mean new at the R/C thing) but I know electronics. I say It is possible but you must think about warranties and the like.
If you are serious about what you are doing if you take off the back you will
see two wires to the battery. Black+ white or red - that is all you need to know.
If I was you I,d go to radio shack to find out about batteries and what not.
Ps If you do this it WILL INVALIDATE YOU'R WARRANTY
