Hi folks, I'm new to the quad-copter hobby; just got my first one today. I purchased the Sky Viper S670 Stunt Drone. I was wondering if anyone knows if and where I can purchase replacement batteries online from somewhere other than Skyrocket Toys direct. I have found a lot of similar looking batteries online but a lot of comments are made that they don't work with the S670. Let me know if you can help, thanks.

Post a LINK.

If you don't use the cradle, this one should work fine and is the best bang for the buck.

If you have some regular Syma X5 types you can cut off the the side ears, then observing the polarity just shove them into the Sky Viper's JST connector.

I have came across that modification video on youtube but I am not looking to do that. I just want more of the 350mah batteries; the flight time difference between the 350 and 650 isn't enough for me to do that. Thank you gents for the fast responses though.

So are you saying I could use these batteries without going through the whole soldering process? They will just fit in the slot without the "battery basket".

Was I speaking Chinglish? Did I ever once say anything about soldering?

That's NOT what I was talking about. You are confusing the issue.

Yeah, that other post confused me a lil' bit there. Chinglish, lol. Thanks so much for your battery recommendation Jackson. I did some measuring myself and it looks like that battery should fit and I am starting to understand the different style connectors. I ordered one of the batteries off eBay, so we shall see if it works in 8-20 days.

In the mean time, this guy just showed up at my door and I am really having fun flying it around my apartment. It came with 2 batteries too. :)
