I got a battery pack for my JR 9303 at www.superbatterypacks.com. They're reasonably priced.

Here is a great choice for LiPoly. http://unitedhobbies.com/UNITEDHOBBI...idProduct=5280
I am using it in my JR 8103 but it is for Futaba . Check to see if it measures up to your pack in mm. or somewhere close. I had to solder on the JR connector. Get alot of extra flying time on one charge. Good Luck!!!

One more option is the Dualsky 2500mah TX pack from Vampowerpro.com. They're Futaba plugs, but I'm told they will plug into JR TXs if you pat attention to the polarity. They're getting some JR compatible ones in pretty soon, too.

Hey everyone,

I picked up a Ni-Cd 2650mah Tx batt a few months ago. It lasts a Loooong time. At least 20 flights a charge. I originally was looking for a Lithium batt but was told by a few peeps that some Tx's dont handle the extra voltage well. The lithiums put out 11.1 volts and the Tx has to be able to knock that down to 9.6 to work properly. So I went with a Ni-Cd and havent regretted the decision. I picked up my batt from Superbatterypacks.com. Good luck!

Bob
