The size thing seems to have "defaulted" to something not quite what we wanted, just like life in many ways. Seems to me there has to be some movement from the BRCA or battery assemblers to allow saddles or make saddles that fit.
We cannot have an option that excludes most modern 4 wheel drive cars.

SMC is close with 4900 @ 67x45x25 1.5mm to tall, I would love to use this pack if...... Ref: http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...ddle-pack.html

MaxAmps have 4000 @ 69x45x21, 3300 @ 66x34x19, 2200 @ 66x34x13

so perhaps saddles can be produced.

I want to race next year with one type of cell with my charger set to lipo, but I may have to carry two types of batteries and two chargers and adjust weight as we go. I cannot believe that after all the discussion over the last year we have reached this position - by default.
