I think you'll be best off in the long run just getting the right batteries for the car. You could look into "soft pack" lipo saddle packs which can be a bit cheaper - especially if you pick them up used. You may have problems trying to race with them though, as they are not allowed in many organisations' rules.

Don't forget you need a special charger for lipos though. That's very important! (sorry for being a bit obvious if you already knew this, but it's too important to not mention!)

Nevertheless, hope you're enjoying the car so far! Once you get those tools, you'll be much happier with it, I'm sure as maintenance will be a million times easier.

Cheers,
Ty
