Not sure if you defo need chassis, have seen people run LiPo in NiMh chassis!

you also need the roller which attaches too the front bulkhead so the the lipo can go under the belt!!

Its will be expensive if you have to change chassis...

Hi

I have tired to mount a LRP 5300 LIPO in a 4+2 chassis.
A small modifications is needed!!
The "Batteryshapes" underneth of the lipopack secure the battery in sideways positions, and I think a small stop should be mounted in the front of chassis to secure the battery is not moving forward.
In the front of chassis plate you must cut at hole with a Dremel to the forward/inside "batteryshape".
A lipobattery battery brace and servomounting is needed.
