Default VF Servo mount question

I just ordered the VF Chassis and I have a question about the servo mount. How do I mount the battery to the mount? I believe I need a brick pack or something...if so where do i get one?? Pics would be great.

Thanks guys,
John

a 6 cell 2/3a brick pack fits well, they can be found at www.cheapbatterypacks.com. Just go to the "custom packs" selection, choose the 2/3a cell you prefer (I like the elite 1500 cells) and choose the "brick pack" configuration. sub-c brick packs are way too big for that servo mount. You can zip tie the battery on, though I prefer velcro straps. Sorry, no pics. You're going to have to count on your imagination.

Yeah...
Nine cell made by Holmes Hobbies.
I just used the zip tie slots machined into the mount.

I prefer to run small Lipo packs on mine. I ran 3 cell 1550 packs from CBP's

Ok so I got my pack today...its the Elite 1450 2/3A 6 cell. My question is how do I charge the pack. I was using the pack that came with the stock wheely king using the HPI charger as well. Can I use the same charger?

Yes you can. The stock battery was a 1500 Mah capacity, it should charge it just fine.
