Default KF2 Lipo post modification

Hello all,

Just going to try and low profile lipo in my KF2 but just wondering if there is a way that I can modify my original posts so that I can run both low profile and normal lipos.

Anyone done anything in the way of this and what are the advantages of using lower lipo

Any advice please

J

I just used some dense foam like this:



A bigger piece would stay put without sticking it, so you could pull it out to put a full height in.

I use the foam method as above.
If I want to run full size LIPOs then you just swap LH and RH and turn them upside down so the foam sticks up, not down
