Default Some Advice needed-About Battery posts...

Hey guys, I have just got my B44 and elecs ect.. I have got the B44 for mainly local club racing.. and as a fun less hassle racing. My main class is nitro. I dont intend to race it in big races only club meets. So I got some Demon Power 6000 lipos. They fit, but there slightly taller than most lipos=because the larger Mah.

I was wondering the best way to either extends the battery posts to use the thumb screws.. or something. As I can tighten them down.. but the battery posts are very loose and the thumb screws arnt holding onto much thread.. so im not going to run it until find a fix.

Anyone got any ideas mods ect.. bear in mind im in the UK and dont always have much access to US products..

I have heard someone has used longer screws but not sure where or what size ect..?
So just wanting some help from you guys, any screws that Will work or any mods cheers!

add a couple of washers under the battery posts to raise them to the height you need them at

4/40 x half inch flat heads or something close to that length that would most likely do the trick nicely
Try these: http://www.m-k-racing.com/product_in...8&%3CosCsid%3E
