What you need is a piece of graphite that screws onto the chassis on the belt side to keep the battery from going out side. Then on the electronics side you do what Exotek did with the TA-06.


You can also make another sub-plate holding the dual rack steering or cut holes for the dual rack steering on the lower chassis in front of the shorty pack and make another graphite retainer to hold the shorty pack from going front to back ala pan car (ie Speedmerchant or CRC). That way there's the option to run the shorty pack with the lower chassis mounted steering or standard 2s pack with the stock steering.

Give it a thought.
