Hello,


Sorry for my poor english.

I drove the first "Strange car"... And yes it's a pain in the butt to change out the battery pack. But we finished the car in the morning just a few hours before photos were made. We had no time to find a better way.


I wonder how long it takes to change battery packs ?
less than 5 minutes but we were 2

It's obviously based on a TC3 suspension and drivetrain. Looks like they're trying to get exact 50/50 F/R and 50/50 L/R balance. It's a good idea in theory but not too practical.
It's exactly what we wanted to test

Do you know anyone who would configure a battery pack like that?
Yes ... me.. In my opinion everybody have only two look on battery configuration. 2*3 or stick... but it's not so different. And no problems to store packs in their box.

One thing though. It looks heavy.
Sorry .... 1500 Gr (52.91 Oz if I don't make a mistake) The chassis seems to be wide but a XXXS is larger. It's only few millimeters wide than a TC3. And we make it wide because we haven't any idea of graphite quality.

Only One question: WHY !!
.... One answer... why not
