humppack battery for my rc10gt

[skeeter1255]

ok i just got a humppack battery for my rc10gt and when about to put it into the on off switch i noticed it was to big, I bout the reedy 1100 humppack, Now does it go inot the on off switch or the reciever itself. and if it goes into the on off swixh do i have to buy something like an adapeer to put it on there and if it goes on the reciver it self then how do i turn the reciever on or it turns on automatically. please help I'm confused.

Your on/off switch should have 2 ends on it, a smaller male-end and larger female-end, the male-end plugs into the reciver and the other larger female-end is were the battery's male-end plugs into.

yes i know but the humpack end looks like the ones that go into the reciver and the one on the on off swith can only fit the double a 4 pack thing,

you need a different switch. that would be the easyest fix,

Yeah ditch the switch. AE uses those goofy little red two prong connectors that are next to impossible to find and when you do, they ain't cheap. The J-type are more common for rx packs for us nitro guys.

That, or you can cut the end of the "AA" holder and solder it on there. It's what I did, no problems since (at least with the battery, that is).:whistle:

I'll assume you had a different battery pack on there before, right? And that pack had the proper plug on it, right? OK, so if you're good with small mechanics, you can pull the wires out of the plugs and then just swap the plastic plug piece. Put the 2-prong male on the hump pack and it will plug right into the switch.
