Hi,here recently I bought the upgrade 9.6v Battery for the Super Cub. It came with an extra clip with a heavier gauge set of wires than what is in my reciever for the power wires. Am I supposed to change these wires for this new battery? or can I just leave everything like it is ?

I don't know if you have an electric plane or gas but a receiver should never see more then 6v. sounds like you bought a motor battery vs a receiver battery. Take your plane into the local hobby shop or to your flying field and let somebody straighten it out for you before you have a real mess on your hands.

I think you got a transmitter battery. Don't hook up that battery to the receiver. Do what low&slow said. Go back to your LHS>

tonywp has a Hobbyzone Super Cub RTF airplane. It comes with a 7-cell 8.4V 1000mah NiMh battery as the standard flight pack. tonywp has purchased the recommended upgrade battery that Hobbyzone offers, which is an 8-cell 9.6V 1000mah NiMh flight pack. The problem is the power connector on the battery doesn't seem to match the power connector to the Super Cub RTF's electronic speed controller.

The upgraded 8-cell battery is a Parkzone part, and not a Hobbyzone part. The Super Cub comes with a brushed Speed 480 electric motor that can certainly handle the extra voltage, but you will need to mate the power connectors between the two.

My recommendation is to replace the power connector on the battery to match the speed controller.

Good luck and good shopping.
