Save yourself alot of trouble an take the motor screws and tip the motor "endbell" up and you'll be able to get a larger pinion on and off without removing the top deck.

In my opinion that aluminium lipo holders are totally unnecesary. The only real reason to use this is if you are looking for a cosmetic option part.
I'm actually adding lead to the electronics side to balance left&right wheight with the new 6200 batteries, It has no sense to add more wheight to the battery side.
Just my opinion

Alum parts always look nice though.

The thin version weigh .20oz and the thick version weigh .25oz. which comes out to around 5 grams which is nothing. I swapped the thick ones with the stock units on my car and there was no difference in handling or lap times
Obviously they are more resilient than the stock units and they look cool!

Personally, 24 / 26 USD for a piece of orange aluminium holder, is really unnecesary. Xray plastic ones are really hard and make the function correctly.

Those could prevent a electronic yard sale. Where are they available?

Will you be at the Reedy this next weekend? If so hook Eric up with a set.

Fred,
One of the things I disliked about 009 aluminum holders was the way the locating pin only recessed about half way through the carbon. I had a rough wreck on asphalt and the aluminum holders bent and tweaked enough to allow the holder to rotate and kind of shear the CF out and away from the locator hole (of course nothing else broke!
). The quality of the aluminum would also need to be top notch considering the amount of leverage the battery might have on them. Very nice work though. Good to see ya!

Stock Servo saver?
Anyone else having issues with the servo saver? Mine broke with a 25.5. I tried to use an aluminum servo arm and then broke the plastic steering bell crank. 
Is there an alternative to the stock Xray servo saver?
