The top brace unscrews from the bottom to release the battery. I used 10mm aluscrews so no need to loosen them complacently. Underneath the top brace I used high density foam with a double sided tape fixing it. It all works like a charm and mu chassis weighs 15grams less than stock. despite more parts!
Then I used a Sanwa SRG-HR servo in between the front wheels. The Tekin RS and Rx fits inline the center of the car now. Got a 45/55 weight ration front to back. Loving it

Very cool. I like the looks of it.
