          Flea bay for the battery I got a 2200 mah one for £12 from a uk seller just check the sizes as not all will fit the starter !

          I used my starter for two years starting 90's never did a thing to it.

          Align, living the dream !

            I have this one and it fits the align starter: Lipo Batteries 2200mAh 3S 11.1v 25C Sport | Overlander Batteries
            take a note of the dimensions and see if you can find something cheaper in ebay, that one fits quite tightly so don't get anything bigger

                  The E-flite 3s 1800mAh battery fits it.
                  Dimensions for battery are:

                  Length: 4.05 in (103mm)
                  Width: 1.35 in (34.3mm)
                  Height: 0.85 in (21.6mm)

                    The align is a good starter, I start 90's with mine no problem never had a problem with it but it has not been worked that hard, as for a battery just check the measurements of the battery compartment then go look on tinter net.

                      just got delivery of starter, the turnigy 2200mah does fit, but its tight, you have to push it down quite hard.

                        I've had an Align starter for over two years now, starting 90s etc,
                        you may find,, infact you will find, the shaft is made of the usual Align cheese metal so will have to up grade to a harder one.
                        I got mine from midland,

                            mine felt tight but i din't want to force it incase i couldn't get it out as its has being in a crash and it bent the bottom a tiny bit i have straightened it out and havent charged or discharged it for about 2 week and it hasnt balloned up so will this still be safe to use ?
