Lipo deformation during impact
 
Hi, I am in a situation that my lipo starts to deformation in the front end which is in contact with battery tray.
I think it is from the impact of bad landing of jump (nose dive).
I already have cushion pad between the lipo and battery tray but it still happened.
Have you had this situation?
How to prevent that?
Is it OK to use the lipo again; any potential harm may happen?

Get some adhesive velcro, and line the bottom of your battery tray with velcro and also attach the other side of the velcro to the battery. Basically velcro the battery into the tray, and also use the battery straps. The battery straps prevent the lipo from coming out, and the velcro keeps the battery from sliding backwards or forwards.

It can damage a lipo. As long as the battery still charges and balances fine it is still safe to use.

My LiPos are pretty smashed up from nose dives with my Hyper, so I will definitely be doing that to mine. Should probably get some hardcases really.
