Default Cougar SV battery lay out

Seems like the SV has 2 battery lay outs?

I can imagine that the weight distribution is different between saddle pack & stick pack.

What is the team running and why?

Thanks

Im not really team anymore, but when we were running it during testing outdoors the stick arrangement was much better for me.

I never got round to trying it with lead, but would've liked to try a flat lipo sized piece under the shell. The X6 responds really well to weight so wanted to to try it in this too. Cells i used were SP5300's

Off-topic but interesting nonetheless: Do the AE B4 front wheels fit the Cougar SV? I wonder if I can use the B4 Rulux front wheels...

I'm thinking this too. The other thing is whether Schumacher will do some pre glued fronts for two wheel drive too. Would be great if they fitted the B4 also..
