Chassis thoughts... vertical, or horizontal batts

[zeropointbug]

hijacking, don't be silly, this is a forum.

I have decided im mounting vetical batts (on edge), so there wont be much of anything for a lower chassis deck. This will be pretty light, competitive with the gorrilla maxx chassis. It will be one killer truck.

Also, serum, i made the the center shaft/spur gear holder future proof, in case i ever want to use a center diff. or whatever. The CG will be low also, the motor sits 45mm lower than stock.

BrianG, do you think 2.5mm alum. plate about 6cm wide by 10cm (for Quark, thermal paste) which would be screwed along the 10cm length to the chassis brace. Or do you think some thicker plate alum. and then i machine it to heatsink fins, passive of course. What do you think?
