Default batt mod

Well the tc3 lives a new life...last sunday i brought out the tc3 again... couldnt believe how tweaked it was. of course a 10 single and rubbers on asphalt will bring out tweak in anything so i did the battery mod...man oh man! this car has never been this dead on left and right. its perfect. tweak free...balanced....perfect. cant wait to bring it to the track. heres some pics. i did this with a drill press, small balsa wood saw for extending the slots and a dremel for the close work. i made a stopper for the batt with lexan to keep it from sliding in the slots....under the shaft is some foam tape but i only made the slots long enough to get it where i wanted it. also made the motor hole bigger to allow cooling...mods on a hot summer day can get pretty hot in that car....
