ok, i was hoping that was the case.. the cell's not damaged at all. it just barely broke that ribbon/tape. not dented or cut anything below that.

when i designed the bottom plate that's on the car now, i was deciding between maxamps or true-rc.. true-rc's are wider, and the cad file i sent was made to fit the maxamps. so the batteries don't sit perfectly flat, and resting on the side of the tray..

that's the only reason they've flown out twice =\ i'll come up with something much more secure on a revision.
