Traxxas TRX4 front battery box

thingiverse

This box is 28mm x 106mm and 27mm tall. This is the space for the battery, not including the slot for wires. It mounts using the 2 front servo screws, you should increase the length for strength. It has a hole for a 20mm wide battery strap. It requires the inner fenders to be cut down a lot and one of the inner fender mounts on the passenger side to be cut off. To keep the strength I put holes in the rear supports to accept a 5.6mm diameter heat set insert. You can then drill a hole in the inner fender and put a screw on both sides. Helpful Tips: ALL filament shrinks after cooling. The amount of shrinkage depends on the type of filament. PLA shrinks about 0.25% PetG shrinks around 0.35% Taulman 910 shrinks 0.31% That means a PLA part printed at 200mm long will be short by 0.5mm. I scale all my stuff in the slicer to 100.25% to compensate for most shrinkage. Measure for yourself if you don't believe me! Humid air is actually lighter than dry air, so it's best to have the dessicant at the top of a container you want to keep dry. Check my designs for a dry box you can make.
