Put it in the buffer tube. A stick battery should fit.

the only kinds i can find are 11.1. if it is a stick it's overpriced with chargers and lipo sacks.

11.1 fit just fine in the buffer tube. I speak from experience. If you want lipos you are going to pay more.

My friend uses the King Arms 11.1V 1100mAh 15C lipo and Firefox 11.1v 1100mah 15C lipo in his crane stock. The King arms is a few MMs shorter then the Firefox lipo.

I think people post "I can't find a lipo to fit" here just because they're too lazy to search for lipos themselfs. Whatever keeps my brain away from my homework I guess.

Not if you know where to look, really. Lipo's are cheap.

Depending on what Mah you're looking for, You could either just use one stick type in the buffer tube, or you could link two together and use them in the crane stock, but that method is twice the cost... If you need a batter explanation check out this thread on 1st sword:

It's a small ways down the page.

I run a lipo in my KWA crane stock. Here's the link. http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/king-arms-11-1v-1600mah-12c-twin-type-lithium-battery.html

I spent weeks trying to find a lipo that was reasonably priced that would fit into my cranestock. I measured the inside of the stock, and the gap that the manual says can fit a 11.1v lipo is just to small to fit one. Besides, the RA tech lipo is way overpriced. I also bought the Tenergy TB6 Universal Charger. Here's the link. http://www.batteryjunction.com/tenergy-tb6-charger-90203.html

I've never had any problems with ehobbyasia (I don't know many people that have) and likewise with battery junction. I know the charger is very spendy, but I figure, because nobody brings extra batteries or chargers to games, I'd take the opportunity to buy a charger that can run off of a car battery and charge just about every battery known to man except for the new MADBULL Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) Battery or whatever.

Here's the link: http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/madbull-12-8v-1500mah-40c-extreme-performance-lfp-battery.html

Hope this helps.

If it's 11.1 you don't meet the OP requirements, and bug off.

Oh, my bad. I miss read this whole thread because I thought you wanted a 11.1v for a buffer tube.

With a 7.4v you a have alittle more possibilities than an 11.1v.

How about this bad for boy(HOT POWER 7.4V 3000mAh 15C) for ya? It says it fits a crane stock. ;)

IIRC the HOT POWER 7.4V 1600mAh 12Cfit too, but don't quote me on that.

Basically any battery at ehobbyasia.com that says ether "two peices" or says "crane stock" should fit.
