Stoomstrijkijze · **RCM mbx6 battery tray very small? -** 08.25.2010, 10:33 AM

Hi guys,

I was looking at the RCM mbx6 conversion for my Mugen. I'm currently running the Tekno, but I'd like to go back to the stock. I've seen my mates RCM mbx6t and the COG was very low too and it weights less than the Tekno.

The only problem I see is the battery tray dimension. I read it's only 50mm*145mm. My lipo are 49mm*149mm (spec sheet) soft and 53.5mm*152mm covered in ABS (real measurement). (hardcase of semi hardcase is required for our No Nitro cup so I coverd them with 1mm ABS).

I can removed the underside of the semi hardcase, so only the top is coverd by ABS that's sticking out of the battery tray, but my battery will still be 4mm too big. I won't be buying new lipo's so I'm hoping there are other alternatives.
All input is welcome!
