With the huge shift to brushless/lipo these days, there are a few things to worry about in a nitro world.. and this is the most important, in a 'A Main' with at least one battery swap in a 30-45min race you need to minimize the time to take off the lid to complete this battery exchange w/o costing valuable seconds on the clock.
Get this!! I want credit for this!! A whole new type of "snap" on body pin design; offer replacement body posts with a rib so you can snap on a clip that actually has a bridge or small connector between the two body posts holding the body in place also with a little grip so you can just pull it off in fractions of a second... TEKNO guys.. here is your chance.. I want 10% please.. LOL. Especially great for 8ights and other similar in design... these little body clips need updating guys.. lets revolutionize!!!!
One other simple thought for a hold over while those are being made.. a small clip that looks like this photo that will with a single hand grab compress and come out of the body holes and go back in just as quick... again a good working idea, just not as ideal as my other...
