Alright Ill probably buy a couple or few of those so I have more flight time, Would it be advised to upgrade the Transmitter battery later on or no? The one that comes with the Tactic TTX850 is 2000 MAH, I take it this will outlast the cheaper batteries I can buy for the receiver? Im interested in having 2 battery 2 switch for redundancy (just in case)
