Hi

There are some aftermarket plates, or you could even make one yourself out of Kydex plastic that would hold both the servo and the battery. It depends on how handy you are. The only reason I can think of why not to do it is that you would have a "sprung" mass above the servo, and this might be a little too much for your servo mount. I really don't think heat would not be problem on a servo in this application. (RC truck)

Good luck with your build! -Migs
