And I have fiber taped over the hole ! I then glued the lipo retainers as usual to the underside. But the alternative is to drill holes in the chassis so they sit in properly ? So its either chassis or one lug.
Not posotive on this.. but i think it's against the BRCA rules to "modify" the battery case. Dont quote me on that though!
