870C and Hotdog build

870C is almost done without a few parts like the white bulkhead caps and wheel hubs. this build is from the parts.

That's not a hotdog manual is it? I've been searching high and low! I know the yr4 is similar but im looking for the right manual!

forgot to tell about the clearance between the belt and the shorty battery.
I put 1mm spacers under the tensioners and it still has only 1mm clearance between them. I'm thinking replacing the battery straps to epoxy or graphite. epoxy would be nice with the white battery cups

Mount the holders upside down and make holes in the bottom for the plugs. Then your cell will drop another mm and you don't need straps at all.

it might work. but I'd take a cool looking. thanks for the idea though

cut the bottoms outta the holders and it'll drop you another 1mm. 2mm is still a lil too close for my tastes though but it does look good so far.

though about it too. but I'm not sure if it's strong enough for running. or I can simply buy a thin shorty battery

On my yr4 I put the shorty in the length: so the belt doesn't run over it. I'll try to make a picture later today.
