3D model description

I recently bought a RTR RC car and a shorty lipo battery for it, but I needed to move the battery holder mounts to take a shorty and the mounting hole was blocked by the ESC. Rather than have to move most of the electronics in the car to get things to fit properly, I opted to create this adapter. All it does is pad the shorty battery out to standard length to help hold it in place if your car's battery holder is only designed for a standard sized battery. I've also included the OpenSCAD file if you want to customize the dimensions or make any modifications.

Picture shows the adapter mounted in my MST RMX 2.0 RC drift car. I printed at a 10% infill, no supports needed.
