Making my BRCA LiPo saddles fit in a Yokomo BX.
 

Here are some pictures of how I fitted my Intellect saddle LiPo's from the BRCA approved list.

The terminal locations for the link wire posed a problem as the rear top deck totaly obscured them. This meant a normal link wire would not fit and even if I had made low profile one with 90 degree connections there would have been tricky to insert them / take the cells out for charging.

I made a link from some 4mm connectors and a tube. The cells slot in and out realy easily.

The battery posts also needed spacing up to accomodate the height of the packs.

10 out of 10, thats is so sweet thanks:thumbsup:

What a great idea! I like that, well done!

very tidy,perfect bit of sideways thinking,

nice, are those cells made by umbro?

Cheers for the comments.

Regarding the case pattern, a few of the cells seem to have this pattern (Demon, Vampire, IP), so either they come from the same factory, or at least the cases do ?

Good skills with you soldering iron :thumbsup:
