Default Max amp draw of a stock HL Tiger? (thinking of using 6 x 2650mAh Ni-MH AA accu)

The title says it all. I have 6 Powerex 2650mAh AA cells and I'm trinking of using a 6 cell battery support and a Tamiya jack in order to make a pack for the Tiger. The main advantage: i have a Maha pulse charger that charges these accus in less then a hour, without frying them.

The big question: can these AA accus handle the max amp draw of a HL Tiger?

So, if anyone tested it, please share I mean the amp draw in real outdoor fighting conditions.

Should work but it won't have the power and punch like when you use a sub C cell size normal RC pack and i am not talking aboutnot the stock HL junkers... cheap RC packs that will be better than HL duratrax onyx and the traxxas NImh packs should be good bangs for the buck!

If memory serves I don't think they draw more than 6-7 amps under full load. Should be fine.
