Guys could anyone tell me which battery i can use except for the standard 7.2v 1700(Mah) for the heng long because the standard battery isnt really powerful and doesnt last long.

Any 7.2v with Tamiya style connector will work as long as fits in the battery box.

I use

7.2v 2000mah NiCd
7.2v 3000mah MIMH
7.2v 5000mah MIMH
7.4v 5000mah LiPo (these need battery box cutting)

Hi Applelover , as Ian said , a battery with a higher capacity than the cheepo HL thing will improve it - but you will need a better charger too . . . . welcome to the slippery slope of RC tankery ;D Blimp .
