Traxxas Stampede XL-5?
I'm am a complete newcomer to the world of rc trucks and i just recently purchased a traxxas stampede xl-5. What would be the best battery/charger to use in this truck and how easy is it to install the extra pinion gear that came with it. The truck included a TRAXXAS 3300MAH NI-MH 6-CELL PACK AND WALL CHARGER but i don't know if that is good. I basically want speed and power out of this but don't know any of the battery guidelines such as which one is best and will work great with the stampede. Any suggestions would help. Thanks
