| Bronco front battery tray size??
Can anyone get the x,y,z measurements for the front secondary battery tray with the bronco body on? I'd like to get a 2S battery for that spot before I get home.

I can measure it when I get home if somebody doesn't beat me to it.

Yeah thatd be nice. Ive been guessing at the battery size i could fit there. I only have my phone on me and am not aware of an app I can use to get dimensions from a picture that already has some measurements laid out.

Nice. But 100C, is that a bit much or will it not affect anything? All my other batteries are 20C so I have no idea.

The more C, the better, can't hurt anything. |

Motor/ESC only pulls the amps it needs. A higher C rating only means the battery can deliver more current/amps on demand, without any damage to the battery.

Height: 26.5mm from plate to top of inner fenders (nothing on the chassis limits height though) Width: 95mm measured at center of plate (tough to measure with my calipers. Front edge of inner fender has about a 4mm narrower section for a total of about 8mm narrower at the front) Depth: 51.6mm front of plate to servo |

| Re: Bronco front battery tray size?? It's a good looking battery, but I prefer to run full size packs on my trail rigs. Changing batteries is a PITA when you're at the wrong spot and it's so easy to lose clips. I'm working on my own low profile battery tray. |

I'm getting at least 2 hours out of the Protek 3S, larger packs don't crawl as well. I always carry spare body clips, screws, CVDs, spur gear and a few other parts. Let's see it! |

I bring spare parts as well, but still. It's only a solid model that I have at home. I won't post it until it's installed. | |

The 3600 fit and performed great while it worked, however I lost a cell after only a few months. I believe Natedog also had issues with one of more of these. Just a heads up.

I love my protek 3600 I do want to pick up a 4100. My cheap 2200’s usually last 2 hours in my axial rig not sure on run time in the trx but the protek is easily over 2 hours. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Gotcha, thanks. I was looking at it mainly for the size to mah capacity to fit in the tray of the Bronco. The added voltage would just be a bonus. |
