Kraton Over max battery lenght

[pawlox98]

Hi to all
I would like to buy a new Kraton 6S V5 and I wonder if the maximum battery length can be slightly exceeded.
The manual says that it is 158mm, but I would like to put a 162mm long battery there, more specifically gensacearespammers 6S 5Ah 45C (I have very good access to them).
Will they not stick out?

You should be fine - there's no back end to the battery tray, and the length-ways velcro strap is very adjustable. I haven't got my cars in front of me, but as it's a Kraton there should still be plenty of clearance to the rear end/bulkhead/arms

The main concern is the width. A lot of hard case lipos will not fit width-wise, and if it's a 6S hard case they may not fit under the cap

Thanks a lot for your response.
The width should not be a problem cause the battery has these dimensions 162x45x42mm (LxWxT ±5mm).
