I spent 20 minutes installing a LiFePo4 battery in MX-V transmitter. The radio comes with a 4AA battery holder stock, but it’s basically meant to let you use a battery.
Conversion was pretty easy, you just need a Futaba connector kit and crimp tool. LiFe batteries are much safer than LiPo batteries and run at 6.6v, so they’re a nice battery type for radios. You don’t have to worry about leaving them charged or discharging them too low, just keep it above 5v.
I find the LiFe batteries last a really long time between recharge, so skip out on AA’s and get a LiFe!
