hard-cased Lipo for Pred

Are there hard cased Lipo's in sadle-pack form that fit the Pred?
I heared the Trakpower Sadle-pack Lipo's are too high and do not fit this car.

I'm thinking about rebuilding my x10 to stickpack-configuration (putting all electronics tot the left side (as a friend of mine did) but also need a new Lipo so buying a sadle Pack Lipo would be much easier.

the new trakpower 3200 saddle packs should fit. As soon as there released and turn up I'll tell you better.

I guess I could still wait and continue with the packs I have now.

How long would a 3200 lipo last before needing a re-charge? 1 run? 2 runs?

They are only equivelant to a 4200 nimh matt.

I dont see the point personally:thumbdown:

with vicky about three runs - but for the rest of us normal folk just stick it on charge after every run and top it up

The Trakpower Saddle-pack 3200 mAh is to be sold at mushroom now.
LINK RC-Mushroom

Strangely enough I can not find any details about this pack on the Trakpower-site.
I would really like to know if these fit in a Pred. A friend of mine is ordering some. Does anybody know the dimensions of this Lipo-pack?

Yes, that's really ackward! And it's not the only case! The EFRA approved LiPo battery list (hopefully) next year I'd like to see with detailed specifications! Would be really helpful!

I did some more research and found the info on the Pred-forum

So, good news, they will fit in my pred :)

You might have to remove the battery post and sand down part of the servo mount, on the side with the electrics.

As soon as mine turn up I'll let you know.
