Corally with a stick LiPo

[Shawn68z]

Thought this was interesting... Moved all his electronics where you would normally have your batteries, and put a lipo right down the center.

I saw that as well it has a different top plate to hold down the lipo

Wow, whats the picture of my car doing here  

Idd, The original Top plate has been cut twice. Once Trimming away the front) was done some 7 or 8 years ago, no idea why exactly.
Trimming away one side was done because I originally planned to put the esc with the solder posts against the battery. Afterwards this seemed like a dumb idea cause thats where the R1 gets hottest and needs airflow but I had cut it already. At least now I can change settings without the need to take the top off.

I did have to add around 150gr of weight to the back of the car for stability's sake. But I was at 964gr so it wasnt a real big problem.

Changed to the GenX pro strut cause I like it a lot and my old corally suspension was worn out from driving it hard for 5 years or so.

If anyone wants me to get some good pictures, I'll get my digicam back from my GFs house.

I cut away part of the right side of the rear pod.
I used a dremel with a cutting disk for this, I'll make some pictures of it, post em on RCtech and link to it down here. (may take a while though).
