My X5 lipo mounting (and couple sneaky X6 ones)

[super__dan]

So I've changed the way I'm mounting the Lipo in my X5, I must admit to totally ripping off Phil Sleigh's design as it was much better than what I came up with initially.



It's simply a peice of Carbon slotted for a strap, then screwed into the back of the chassis at the right height for the cells you're using.



Front end is a battery post drilled in the right position



Couple of self indulgent photos of cars with new SMC lipos in them (4000mah 28C), they are really good so far though only used them a couple of times.



And a couple of X6 for good measure, they are a perfect fit in the new chassis with the new battery straps



Wiring not quite up to ideal standards but with still trying various things in the new car and weight positions I'm not too 'worried'



Just as a disclaimer I should point out I've no idea if these will be BRCA legal this year until the list comes out
