Kraton What the heck is this tray mount used for ?

[ActionJackson]

Howdy folks, I cannot figure out what this little holder in the center of the photo is made to hold…??? It seems like a great place to hold a battery bypass/short but none seem to fit!

 

[Smilinbri]

I was thinking that same thing last night!!!! I believe it's to hold the balancer plugs but I can't figure out how it works - like my daddy always said, you're as sharp as a marble boy!

Supposid to hold the balance plug of a battery, but damned if I can fit it in

RIGHT!

I tend to rubberband the balance leads to the battery itself, that way if in a Bad crash those leads don't end up staying in the holder while the battery gets to flying out the car!

two 3s balance connectors

balance lead slides into the slot and the band holds it in place. works to hold a voltage monitor in place too.

Take the pastic cover off your balance leads if they have one. Several of my batteries have them and they open right up and you can put them back on

It's just a spare body clip rubber, because they know you're going to break one

I spent almost 10 minutes earlier trying to figure out what the hell that was for. I thought it was for the balance plug also but yeah, it wouldn’t fit. However I can see that one would fit after taking the plastic cover off so I’m glad someone mentioned it. I don’t plan on ever using it but I’m glad I know what the heck it’s for

My guess is it fits these https://www.spektrumrc.com/Products/Default.aspx?ProdID=SPMX50003S100H5 but I don't run there batteries so nothing I have fits.

Makes sense! I don't run em either. Thanks!

Its so you can hide easter eggs

Don't use it!!!.. LOL... Seriously, Mike

I heard it on Twitter that it's for the new Advanced Nano Tesla Powercells for [T]watches..

Enough power for 8S in a tiny pack to fit right into those slots and only needs small bands to hold in place ,Even during extreme bashes and from hi-moon jumps/landings.
The wires themselves are pure Borophene and just 40 microns thick, can handle ~600amps continuous. They're basically superconductors at room temps.

[ActionJackson]

thank you for the honest (and funny) answers guys!

I like the extra body clip rubber response because that’s about all I’ll use it for!

Glad to know I wasn’t the only one stumped by that thing… and I’m supposed to be a dang engineer

How you know my name?? And yeah I probably would.
