only thing I don't like is the layout of the batteries. Really jammed in there first of all, so they are a pita to get in and out. And the edge of one battery is really close to the pinion with the longer TP packs.
Since the nanotech only lasted about 8 charges (cell error on one pack) I'm going to have to solve the problem. TP Pack is right up against the steering post in the front so it'll have to move sideways.
Ugh. Need a better chassis/battery setup...
Can you imagine this if I could get the weight of the 5ive down in the 20lb range?

A better "electric-specific" layout would be ideal in many ways - and low 20 lbs weight should be doable I would think - The body is around 6lbs itself, IIRC. None of my machines have a large enough work envelope to make a chassis that big, or I may have done it already.
