I've already alerted my wife that if a bunch of dudes from up North show up at the front door with crawler trucks in hand to let them in.

You can leave those friends at home. My wife would cause them physical harm. You sound like a tidy chap so you can come

Thanks toys222, I figured I would throw some humor in the thread. Glad you appreciate. The cold up here is abnormal, truly. I was born into it. We have folks immigrating from various African countries. It's pretty hilarious to chat with them in dead of winter

I do appreciate the warm welcome. I am indeed a tidy chap, though my RC workshop can get a bit a touch cluttered with my various projects.



Got my Mamba battery wires soldered and taped her in. Receiver taped down as well



I ordered the Bowhouse low COG battery tray from Amain. This tray is ridiculous. Its above the motor, no Bueno...

You sure you installed it correctly?

The videos show it not being over the motor ... if this is the one you bought.

Yep it’s installed correctly. Did you look at the image in my last post? It shows exactly where I installed it. It’s not literally on top of the motor, I am speaking about it’s height above the frame rails.

That’s strange smog. Mine sits down a good bit further in the rig than the OE battery tray.

Zooming in on the pic of yours, and looking at mine, they appear to be a little different though. Have you tried flipping the tray 180 - so what is front now is back and vice versa? Even though they seem to be a bit different, yours would appear more closely to mine in that orientation. Maybe it allows it sit lower by clearing things better. IDK - just spitballin ideas. I can’t imagine they’d make a design change that would force the tray to sit higher.

That's not a Bowhouse tray in the pic... that looks stock. Am I missing something?
