Well let's see, you need fuel, glow plugs, a fuel bottle, battery pack, batteries, I hear you may need new tires, as the stock ones wear out quickly, if you get new tires, you need new wheels, get a-arms, possibly a suspension tower or two, and you'll be set.

yes you probabley will want to get a new set of tires. those tires will be fine for offroad use but if your going to be running them on the road you will want a new set because the jato tires wear out after about 5 tanks, my tires are bald already. some people get a 5 cell rechargable battery because they say 4 AA batteries dont have enough juice to run everything but i only use batteries and it works fine.

That will work but it will be a very tight fit in the rear compartment. So tight that ar soon as you land on the rear batterybox it will strip the plastic thread right out. Trust me..been there, done that. You also will not be able to fit that in the center compartment. What you need is a flat pack.
I had a couple packs like yours and took them apart and made them flat packs but I wouldnt do that if you dont know what your doing.[X(]
