Dont do it, you wont get the same punch out of the batteries, Meaning you wont go fast. But yes you will go for a very long time...

So in general, LESS POWER, longer run times.

And by less power i mean a lot less.

plus AA batts weigh more...

There would be a large weight difference, but I don't think amperage matters with batteries... good question.

If it did alter anything, it would be a longer run time but no performance difference.

I know it has been beaten to death, but Lith's are the best option. Costly, but better performance out of your motor, and battery life.

i've done the spinbrush magnet switch, i runs way slower and quieter and i did see a tourqe improvement, but i dont think its enough for a crawler.
