Is anyone using AAA NimH batteries for a RX pack ??. I am looking at 
Batteries America ( EHYOST ) and they seem to have AAA NimH's in 720, 800 
and 900mah ratings. I currently use their 2/3A 5 cell NimH pack at 1100mah 
and a weight of 3.85 ounces complete with the long lead I have on the pack. 
Going to their AAA 5 cell pack looks like I can save about an ounce or so. 
Mah isn't an issue, I can get in excess of 7 to 8 flights on the 1100mah 
pack I use now before charging so going to 900mah shouldn't be a big hit. 
Don't suggest Lithium anything as lighter, want to continue to use my Alpha 
4 charger and am not convinced those new batteries are safe.
