The power and balance leads both come out of the end of the pack and there is not enough room in the part at the rear of the car for both leads to fit and then head upwards, plus the balance lead on the pack is only about 1" long so it's stuck down near the drive shaft.

I'd like to stick with the curved pack style but would prefer one where the leads come out of the top of the pack on the corners.

Can anyone tell me what LiPo packs they have in their cars now that fit?
Thanks
Do the leads come out the centre or side of the pack? The correct ones for this car come out the side. You can probably still use them, just use battery straps instead of the door or tray.
