I have only skipping of the side belt with the stock item when it is used a lot.
When using a K-factory belt i don't have skipping at all and i drive the E4RS and before some one says then the belt is tight,no it isn't.
It runs as free as it can get all it's life.
The lipo kit takes care of the room for lager lipo's as the 5000MAH.
I have the K-factory lipo kit on my car and i need to tape my lipo's down in the battery tray if i use the 5000MAH lipo's.
Room isn't a issue any more for me
Btw i run the E4RS mainly on carpet with rubber and i had to limit the grip on the back to get it true the corners
regards Roy

I presume getting a stiffer top deck would not be as effective in reducing flex?
What exactly does the WH10135 part achieve over the stock one? Better clearance for lipos, fit, or rigidity?
Have you had any dealings with CometRC, the UK TM distributor? It would be handy if they brought in some of your products!
