I flew my first T-Rex exclusively on 1350mah 3s lipo without a problem at all.
And I was getting pretty good flight times (just hovering and slow forward flight)

best is to use the align battery, 2200mAh 20C 3S; it is compact and smaller than other batteries with the same spec. Now, the outrage came out with a new set of batteries, so I'm not sure if they are better than align...

i fly my trex with a 1500mah 20c 3-cell eletricfly lipo all the time. no issues. what it gives up in headspeed it makes up in weight savings. it flys a minute and a half shorter than the thunderpower 2200mah lipo.
