Is it electric? does it mean 2 or 3 cells? I'm not familiar at all with those fractions when it comes to batteries. More info on the plane, and what the batteries are used for would help us help you...

Ok I just looked at your link, pretty cool little planes for $19.99 too. But I didn't see anything about AAA batteries. I did see that it requires a (6 cell 220mah Nihm) battery pack. Maybe you got confused when you saw the radio requirements. 3Channel/2micro servos.

Now I have to go back to that link to decide which one I want.
