A 500mah battery? Wonder how long that'll run for, 15 maybe 20 min?

I have one of these half tracks on its way now and I agree there has GOT to be a battery for them.

Hey Horses...not sure how big your compartment is....but Helicopter batteries are smaller than most...you might want to try checking the specs on those ;)

Those helicopter batteries only last like 10 minutes at a shot and then die FAST! I got a couple helicopters and they're all pretty much the same as far as batteries go.

I still think airsoft gun batteries may be the answer as they are designed to last a LONG time so you can battle with them. I have a few airsoft guns as well and their batteries last a good long time.

True that Jack...airsoft batteries last a lot longer...but are much bigger...Now if we are talking lipo.... I have two M3 grease guns that run off 11.1 helicopter batteries..they are tiny... about 2x1x3/4" and they rip for over 2hrs :haha: :haha: :haha:
