X Factory Quick Change battery kit
X Factory, responding to input from customers, releases a kit to allow faster removal of the batteries from the X-6 Squared and X-60 without damaging the chassis. Chief Engineer Paul Sinclair said, “Many team members live and race in places where LiPo batteries must be removed from the car for charging. Also, many who use cells instead of LiPo want to remove them to charge or store. The X-6 Squared’s CF battery strap is held in with flat head screws which go into posts in the chassis. Constant installation and removal of these screws will damage the threads in the chassis, and this new kit eliminates the problem. Many owners of the X-60 truck have converted from the Kit-supplied nuts to thumb screws, but that will not work for the X-6 Squared because the body sits too low. The new Quick change kit contains four 1” long set-screws that can be installed in place of the standard bolts with an Allen driver and four low-profile locking nuts which are just low enough to clear the buggy’s body.”
