On the web sites I visited I didn't always find the size of the RX-accu's.
NOSRAM VTEC LiFePo RX-Pack 2/3A Straight 1600 - RX-only - 6.6V or
LRP VTEC LiFePo RX-Pack 2/3A Straight 1600 - RX-only - 6.6V ... both measuring 85.5x30x17 mm and weight 78 gram.

Capricorn Li-Fe 1650mah battery pack ... measuring 87,5x27.5x16 mm and weight 70 gram.

I have a Nosram and Capricorn ... in the real world Capricorn is around 1.5 mm longer and a bit narrower, but not much. The height of Capricorn is a bit les, but under 1 mm and not so much that the fueltank can be lowered a shims more. Capricorn is the 8 grams leighter than Nosram.

Best wishes; Jens
