Default Batteries

Are you guys using those little hump pack batteries? Or are you guys using full size stick pack batteries? If you are using full size stick packs can you please post some pics. Thanks

I ran a stick pack in my TLT-1 mounted where the hump pack would go, it sat a little tall, but that was ok for me. In my TLT-10 I have them in the front perpendicular to the chassis. Here's a pic before I removed all the cluttered up electronics:

Hey crawlin, here's a better chassis shot. I don't think the chassis is all that extreme or anything:

man i never get tired of seeing your chassis plays_with_toys it isnt really all that extreme but it is very nice looking.

Anyway i use the little 1700 hump pack from tower and i also took apart an old 2000 mah stick pack and rearranged it into the hump design so i could have two batteries with me and not have such long waits between runs. I have also just zip tied stick packs to the tlt either laying it across the top of the chassis and putting all the electronics on top or duct taping it to the bed of the body. ghetto yes but it worked fine
