Yes, that would definitely help with the problem. I was under the assumption that you could *only* use Lipo's due to space restrictions, but looking again at the size of the pack you're using, it's definitely not that. It sounds like a pretty hefty battery. LOL.
A torque up motor *might* make the issue a bit better, but it could also make it worse, as upgraded motors usually have an even higher rate of fire.
Get a smaller battery!
A crappy 8.4v NiMH mini is definitely too small to crank an M110 spring. You'd need at least torque up gears to get that working with crappy cells.
You'd at least need very good quality and high capacity cells if you had to go with a mini pack (ie, 1600mAh 2/3A).
Also, Ni-Cad can achieve higher maximum current dumps than Ni-MH cells can, so if minis are your only option, I'd pick Ni-Cad over Ni-MH, even if Ni-Cad 2/3A cells only have a maximum size of 600mAh.
As for those ebay batteries you linked, either of those should work, but I'd probably go with the Nunchuk batteries before the large cell pack, as they're made from a known cell manufacturer (Intellect) rather than from some random unknown brand ("Huosuli"? Never heard of it)
