It's reversed so I don't think so...

Agreed, Fredrick's trays were much more secure, mine also have +1mm play. They are for LiFe batteries, I wonder if they're bigger?

Been used to it since the 501x came out and all my wires sets are the required length now!

I'm currently waiting on the parts to be produced, I will post pictures once I'm 100% sure all fits well.

First run will be on sunday, hopefully with the new lipo mounting way
Looking forward to it....
