The answer is yes. Im not sure what connector the Vex kit uses but I managed to find a bunch of batteries from Toy's R US that looks like they have the same connector. Im not sure about the radio's battery though.

we did a local tourney in San Diego and our kit was a 100 bucks off. i think it's because the lack of interest from other customers. who really buys VEX kits unless you're involved with FIRST. we saved enough money to buy a hardware kit, but on line, the store didn't have one. we lost the competition because we didn't pay attention to the incline when we built it, so it couldn't even move, but we pulled 6 out of 11 be cause of alliances. :P

The battery connectors are known in the R/C car industry as Tamiya style connectors. No telling wether or not they are general called this.

I grabbed everything our store had. If someone needs something, PM me or something. I bought extra just for that reason to share with other teams.

Some of it we are keeping, just ask. I let you know if we still have it.
