I have a different question regarding the stock Mirage III controller. So far I have not had any problems and when I ordered the MT2 I received a free Venom failsafe with the truck, which I think was great since I have read about a lot of run away trucks here.

What I am wondering about is a rechargeable battery conversion kit. Would the Hobbico or Duratrax Ni-CAD battery conversion kit work on the Stock Mirage III that came with the truck or is there another one that is better? I looked through all the manuals, on CEN's website and at a number of posts but couldn't find the answer. Everything just says 12 AA batteries. I know both these kits would work with the Futaba if I should need to replace the Mirage in the future (hoping I don't need to, but may anyway).
