Default RE: Help! Newbie's Question abt replacement of Battery

You need to match Volts for Volts, that is, if the stock battery is 3V, you need to come as close to 3V as you can to avoid burning out the motor and other onboard gear in the plane. Being an RTF, its capacity is certainly very limited.

Replacing a 3V with a 6V will practically guarantee a burnout.
