If I get flamed, oh well. Look at how a lot of guys with plate chassis cars secure their cells. Tape! I used to do it when I ran a Losi. Talk about a pain. But it balanced the car better so I did it.

The battery is not directly in contact with the graphite. Remember there is the labels that protect it somewhat. With the XXX-S, the cell's end could possibly touch the backbone of the car. Most people also use plastic cell shrink on each cell to add extra protection.

Electrical tape on both sides between the graphite chassis and the battery tray will solve that problem ....kinda like the setup on the xxx buggies and trucks where you put insulating tape along the edges

I was talking about strapping tape to hold the cells in. Not tape to insulate the cells.

lol..tape. This a thing of the past with the JRXS. lol

Let's not forget that if those two battery bars on each end where you'll hardwire hit that chassis. You'll short the battery. Better to be safe than sorry, no?

Tim Johnson

I have never once seen any of the Losi guys put tape anywhere on the chassis or the battery. So im thinking it is out of harms way.

I guess its a good thing when the worse thing people are worried about is how to get the battery in.

Tim Johnson

This is true

EricF

boo hoo i can't get my battery in, and my plugs don't fit, stupid car, i'll never buy it

let the flaming begin, and..... GO!!!!

Tim Johnson

LOL WTF are you on CRACK

EricF

NOPE... Just pointing out again the silliness of page after page of the battery tray conversation.

Tim Johnson

That is why i created the video. what hoping to put an end to it, so we all can talk about what tires we all want to try on the car first. and what bodies to try etc.

So how about those diff balls
