The mini inferno's run off AA right? I bought a mini inferno last night that does, so i'm gonna return it and get the RC18T instead. Seems more durable.

You sure it was a Mini Inferno and not a Mini-Z? The Mini-Z's run off of AA or AAA batteries, can't remember which. The Mini Inferno has 2/3A NiMh packs that it uses.

Also, if I had to do it over, I'd probably have started with a Mini Inferno versus the RC18T I have. I love my RC18T, but the little bit of extra wheel height of the Mini Inferno helps a lot with running off road when you're bashing (I've got Mini Inferno wheels/tires on my Vendetta). I've also got a Mini Quake and Vendetta and would recommend those as well if you've got the patience to upgrade the Vendetta or don't mind spending $125 for a Mini Quake SE roller. Almost every 18th/16th scale out there has a ton of hop up parts available, so there's no shortage of upgrades for any model.

Yep, just read the specs. I didn't realize that the MI didn't come standard with a NiMh pack. Of course, there isn't a 16th or 18th scale that comes with a good NiMh pack from the get go. IB1400's are where it's at.
