Can you join batteries to make RC last longer?

You could put them in parallel--wire positive to positive, negative to negative, then connect the positive and negative wires to the car. This would give you twice the current capacity, and you'd be okay because the car's only going to take as much power as it needs. If you wired them in series--positive on the first battery to the car, negative on the first battery to positive on the second, negative on the second battery to the car--you'd double the voltage and burn the car out.
