Default Battery forward/electronics mounting plates?

Who makes the best battery forward/electronics mounting plate for the Wraith? I've looked a few different ones - CKRC, BPC, Da Box, and Crawler Innovations.
I like the a CKRC and BPC plates. Da Box looks nice as well!

Just wondering what other people were using, or what you thought would be the best one to go with.

Thanks!

i just did the CKRC one and it works good but the fitment was a joke holes did not line up and you have to trim around the motor make holes bigger and what not. seems to me it would be a very easy thing to just make it right but what do i know. needless to say it works.

Mine was the same way I had to trim a little of the interior and the battery plate itself never had a issue with the holes lining up

yep and if you want it to be real nice plan on pulling the whole interior out i butchered mine. but don't really care about scale/detail just want a good running BP rig. they could make it a whole lot better with little effort....

Dinky RC also sells one for a very good price. I used my stock battery holder and mounted it in the firewall and cut the electronics tray right before where the mounting hole for the battery tray is. Going that route will keep you from having to cut up any of the interior if that's a concern.

The one I have is a nice tight fit. Bpc is a good one too. Very well engineered. Da box is cool but plastic.
