Guys, I'm finishing my EFRA proposal for LiPo. And I'd like to have your views on a matter:

Dimensions: ROAR uses max lenght 139 +0/-3 mm, width 47 +0/-2 mm, height 25.1 +0/-3 mm.

I think Chris Doughty had a good point as to if you want to have some sizes set - it should be no larger than a std. stickpack (fit a B4 without modifications done to the chassis).

A NiMH cell is approx 23 mm thick. 6x 23 = 138 mm long.
A NiMH cell is approx 43 mm long. 3x 43 = 129 mm long.
How long is a std. stick-pack (assembled)?

As to my measurements 48 mm is max width in a B4 chassis.

So I thought about these max. measurements:
length 139 mm
width 48 mm
height 25 mm
(that also is a bit on the limit isn't it?)
Two saddle packs should not be longer than 139 mm placed in series (like a stick pack)

Feedback is highly appreciated! Thanks!
