Mojave Battery tray question

[Greywolf74]

So I know the HH website says that the max battery size is 6.25 inches long. Is it possible to mod it to hold Lipos that are 7.5 inches long? Thought Id ask folks who already own and run this truck. Thanks!

Depends on width and how you configure but yes

The width of the l;ipos are within specs its just the length that I was concerned about.

You can position the battery tray a few ways, the photo shows the most "forward" position allowing the longest batteries to be inserted. You'll probably need to find a way to safely stow your balance connectors. Which batteries are you planning on using?

Yep, just make sure the cables are long enough to get to he esc.
The battery in the pic below is 17cm or 6.8inch long and as you can see there‘s still some room (4cm or little over 1.5 inch) before the battery hits the side guard.

On the subject of battery trays, I'm running 2 4s and the little slider thing doesn't open far enough to fit them. (They're too tall).

Any way to remove that slider or any recommendations for an aftermarket tray?

You can cut up the channel to make it a shade taller. I did this and can stack two cnhl 4s packs nicely. See the 2nd pic below - this is the hotracing upgrade, I don't use it at the moment.
