E-Flite Opterra Battery Pod

thingiverse

I'm working on a project to fit two 5500 mAh LiPos under my Opterra. The goal is to significantly boost its duration and range. To achieve this, I've designed a system that involves cutting two small holes in the underside of the Opterra. This allows me to secure the batteries using carbon-fibre tubes with 'lugs' that support them. A heavy-duty cable tie can be threaded through slots to hold the battery in place, even without the option tail section. The design also includes spikes to improve grip and stability.
