My 2 9V hook-up
 
Yes I have done it. And I must say it works out really well. I took off the 2 AAA battery Cells and custom fabricated a holder for the 9V. The hook up is quite simple really, not a whole lot to it. I swapped out the Stock motor, and pulled one from an old R/C car I had that died out. I re-winded the engine and got it running, set it up to the Drift set-up, then hooked both batteries up. Thinking I would Fry the Motor or my Circut board.....But to my suprise as I punched the throttle all it did was spin. The tires came off so i glued them on ( this is a 2WD set-up) then gave it a small amount of throttle as it took off i slammed it, and WHOA! talk about speed! This thing owns! I am thinking of finding a place nearby Utah and go to their XMODS competition (cause I know Utah will never ever see one.) I know i will own everyone! One prob is that the engine overheats......I'll fix that in a jiffy tho, I got a Heat Sync on it as well. I will keep everyone poseted and try to get some pics and videos on me racing some friends and doing what I love to do best.....DRIFT!

I pulled 2 9V hook-ups from two Walki-Talkies and then took out the stock drift motor, and put in the SpinBrush Motor, then hooked up the 2 9V (placing then was really hard) then i got it running so hard/fast, I blew the motor!

Shenanigans declaration
 
I Declare Shenanigans.

An Xmod will not hold up to 9v. any attemt to use 9v on an xmod will fry the circuitboard.

show me a picture.
