Thanks YR4Dude!
The battery fits under the chassis brace/top plate support just in front of the motor. At the front of the battery you can either leave it as is or I'm thinking I will make two small slits in the top plate on either side of the battery opening to slip a velcro strap through and have it so it won't pull through the plate. So then this would come from either side of the battery and strap across the top of the battery. Prior to accessing the battery, you pull off a cover that is a cutout in the body. See the pic below:
I haven't timed it, but it can be done in less than 10 seconds without the velcro...maybe another 2 seconds with the velcro.
