Nicad will just fit sideways in the first gen RC10 and 10T tub. Lipo is about 5mm too long according to all the specs listed. I had that problem with my shortcourse 10T. I ended up going with a saddle pack on that one.

The B2 was the first plastic chassis. The T2 that I have was the last of the aluminum pans. It was shaped similar to the plastic ones.

Not mine, just one from photobucket.

Oh god, you're 100% right...ThunderbirdJunkie even owned one. He's braindead tonight and should refrain from posting forever. Ugh...ran a B2 at the same time as the T2...and should've definitely remembered that.
