About your battery mount though... you're going to need something to stop the battery from popping out from the top in a crash. Mine is similar, and needed one too. A simple "L" shaped bracket does the trick nicely.

Hey Dafni... does this mean you're willing to paint some bodies? I could use a buggy body...

I am planning to put a layer of velcro on the face to the CF plate and on the back of the lipo. The velcro and the strap should be plenty to hold that battery in place. I have a similar system in my 1/8 buggy and I actually forgot to close the strap once and ran an entire pack jumping and crashing with only the velcro and tray holding it in place. I only realized I forgot to close the strap after I ran the entire pack. Its amazing how strong that stuff is if you have enough surface area. I just need to get to the store to pick some up.

And I bet Daf is up for doing custom paint work. I asked him to do a body for my Revo and it turned out AMAZING! I was actually going to post a thread on it, I just havent gotten around to it yet. I'll see if I can snap a couple pics soon so you can see the work he did for me. That man has more atristic talent in his little toe than I have in my whole body. He does really nice work.
