I'm sure....but these are no AAA, they are Lithium cells.  I wouldn't expect something radio controlled at just 30quid to come with a set of batteries that retail at over a tenner.

As someone who has investigated buying batteries in bulk to supply with
OEM gear I can assure you that the manufacturer wouldn't pay that.  
ISTR we were paying about 10 cents for a pair of AAAs!

When you buy batteries you are paying for the brand name.
