Hi,

I think there could be some sort of mistake here mate, I'm fairly certain the TT-02 has not been made in a Type E (only D, R and S). Plus your talking about the tray having bits for stick packs and not fitting a hard pack lipo... Mate I think you've got a TT-01 not a TT-02.
Thankfully there's a lot of similarities and you'll still be happy with the 01 for what you've said you plan to use it for.

Trimming the nubs off may allow for more steering, but you may find you need to go for thinner dogbones / high angle universals in order to achieve this.
As for fitting a hard pack lipo you may just have to go at with a dremel. This is one of the things that was fixed into the TT-02.

No such thing as a dumb question mate.
Enjoy,
Crouch.
