I use a PPD EZ-Lipo battery tray (www.ppdbillet.com) with lead weight strips on the side (see the orange blocks on set up sheet). I also added 15 gr extra to balance it left-to-right. I use Trinity shock oil. ...
I would like to see how you handled the connector-problem: my connectors touch the topdeck, and I had to dremel 1mm away to be able to mount my trakpower Lipo.
Also, when using this tray, I wonder how much clearance you have under the topdeck. I guess it will be a close one when using a "fat" hardcased Lipo as the Trakpower.
I was thinking of making a brass plate with some weight to mount on top of my Lipo ... but such a Lipo Tray as you presented lowers the weight and COG, which is always better, I guess.
thx!!

Yeah, I've been wondering what the deal was with this photo on all the blog pages. It's definitely not the WE...

Hope you guys don't get mad about all my questions ... but could you please post some pictures of this Lipo tray into your 416?

This is what the PPD looks like installed http://www.rctech.net/forum/4288790-post1712.html
I use SMCs too so don't have the plug issue, if you need to move the battery outside of the top deck get a bitty design tray and put a lead plate in the bottom. Here's Ben's pics of the bitty design tray fitted from the last page http://www.rctech.net/forum/4952879-post3022.html
I would think filing your top deck would affect the handling btw
It looks like marcs car with the coloured in servo heatsink, LRP motor rather than SP tho
p.s. where you been Ed??
If you are using 3mm of spacers on top then the 5mm screws don't bite enough, I ordered some of the 8mm screws and they work much better. I haven't heard of Tamiya coming out with any, but the square ones are great. FYI with 3mm of spacers they also dont bite the square ones enough - I stripped the top 2mm of my square ones in a hit so now have to use the longer screws

btw... the 2.5mm is dialed. definitely prefer it over the 2.25 for 13.5 racing. if anyone wants my set up, PM me, ill send it over.

Are the aluminum rear uprights for the TA05-IFS compatible?
