Its the AC battery strap of the CR2. You need to dremel the motor cover to get it to fit.
I used an old battery post I had in my box (think it was off a touring car) PM oldtimer if your after one but you will need a post too. Tony |
Im loving all the pics of your completed 22's. Each of you have made your 22 unique and personal. Its all we in North America have to keep us going until our kits are delivered this week. Thanks for letting all of us across the pond share in your excitement.
But those Schui tires still look like a blast from the past!!! LOL :D |
|
Are the cut staggers over the full wheel width or is the wheel cut down on the inside?
Cheers |

Never run it so tests will tell if this is working or not. |

u can get off this site
atomic-carbon.co.uk i think you might have to have special order though as recon the losi 22 might have killed the cr2 sales lol |
Yer tiz ....

Hmm, interesting. @ianhaye what's the measure of that battery? And that receiver is it just placed on top of the battery so you have to remove it each time you take the battery in and out or?
|
very nice with the big lipo in there!!!
|
Na the rx is is sitting onto a mount . It was ment to be used as the rear battery holder thingy but put in back to front and some of it Cut off. Will put up a closer pick of it tomorrow
|
Will post some more pictures of the batt strap later tonight.
Its just a single post with a new countersunk screw holding the post in position and the motor cover dremeling out to the right spacing to fit weight under the cells Tony Quote:

Now my new LiPo Hold In System is completed, thought i'd show it off :D
Very pleased with how it's come out. I'm very anal when it comes to Wiring Installs, so i spent hours getting it right, so it was as neat as. Then after it's first run, i decided i couldn't live with the Velcro Straps. I had a few ideas and went off to attempt to make it. This is the MK 1, but i'm very happy and think that'll do me. May even think about pricing it all up properly if people like them. Let me know what you think. http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...m/P3310002.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...m/P3310010.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...m/P3310007.jpg http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i1...m/P3310006.jpg Only the tiniest bit of Carbon. Was going to do it in Ali, but then thought, nah it's gotta be Carbon, especially as the Thumb 'Screws' are Brass. |
Nice that fella :thumbsup:
|
Very slick russmini
|
Chirurgical !
|
I have the same esc, Will it fit with a non lp servo with this layout?thanks for the info

You might just get one in.
You can see there's 2 rows of lead weight, that i basically threw in on Sunday, there's an 8mm gap. Then there's a 3mm gap between the Speedo and LiPo. I have got my Servo mounted with the 2.5mm of shims, so it sits quite far forward though. This was to reduce the catching of the servo link on the top plate and to get the link nice and straight. So all in, 11mm if you can mount your servo as far forward as mine. You might just do it. Hope that helps. |
Ok thanks for the info, i Will try tris way:thumbsup:
|
AAwww you guys and your fancy battery straps make this yank wanta cry! :drool: I want a battery strap like you guys. :wub
|
What's up with all the custom battery straps? Isn't the velcro straps good enough or?
@ianhaye: Could you go into a bit more detail on what you've fixed your receiver on? |
the velco straps are messy(dont look nice:thumbsup:)and dont realy let the shell sit right
|
russmini - what is that holding the lipo at the rear of the car ? - can't quite figure it out from the photos ?. nice job btw - will be cutting some carbon this weekend !!
|
That is part of the 'System'
The LiPo slides into that, securing the rear fully. Then the front sits between 2 posts, holding the LiPo from moving sideways. Once the Carbon strap is put on and screwed down with the Thumbscrews, the LiPo is completely secure. Think most people have missed that part of my 'System' as they were too busy drooling over Carbon & Brass sexyness, lol. |
cool - what did you make it from or is it a completely new part ?
|
Yeh, all new. It's actually manufactured out of Steel. Would maybe be nicer out of Ali, but Steel has definate Pro's.
When i finished building the kit, fully ready to go, it weighed 1415g ! I threw some lead in, just to get it legal. So with this added, and in Steel, there's an immediate addition of weight, right in the middle of the buggy. I have not weighed it though, so not sure of its total weight, but would imagine somewhere around 30-40gms. I will be taking it out to find out. |
good stuff - i'm drawing up a new lower carbon battery tray (for the small lipo) to hold the battery & provide a location for the lead / brass under-lipo weight, two posts like your design & a top carbon strap.
