Walker 1001

[SShere]

I heard Walkera Transmitters are a clone of a JR model. There is no Walkera controller threads, so here it is here, sorry. This remote came with a battery and the charger, now this question may sound remarkably stupid, but here it goes:

The battery that came with the transmitter is for the radio, not the bird, right?

It'd only make sense in my opinion, but the pack cannot go in no matter which way you angle the battery. I have been using 8 AA's with the battery holder since I received the remote.

Who knows, it could be my fault, and my stupity ... I went and purchased Walkera products. AH

the battery that came with my walkera 60 is square and has 10 cells 650mah it is for the heli.
you could go ask in the walkera section there are a lot of people here flying walkera heli's

Thanks. I guess my real question is what type of batteries are suggested that are rechargable and have a good life time. (AA's)

i have a futaba TX with nicd batteries already installed But i use some energiser 2500mah AA's in my digital camera and they last a long time compared to alkaline batteries about 3 times longer they have them at walmart

or you could check what the LHS has in stock

I have a walkera tx and i just use duracell aa batteries work pretty good. May switch to rechargables though.
