LOL - Sorry about that.
They are better than gmaxx straps, but they are not great. I am running 7 cell packs, so the fit is nice, but there is not enough grip. I wrapped with heatless shrink on the chassis and strap and the batteries held very well.
I think I am going to use blue plasti-dip on the chassis and strap and I think they will be great.
One more thing, there is a bit of a clearance problem on the end where my esc wires for the batteries. It is not a big deal, just need to move the wire out of the way.
Hope this helps.

Captain,
You might consider contacting FLM for a chassis upgrade and move from your V2 (it looks like a V2 same as mine was) and get the V3 which has the battery slots much like the UE Lightning. FLM is pretty accomodating when you tell them you can't keep the batteries on the chassis.

The picture you posted is a V3 although the flats between the batteries look wider than mine which is only a couple months old. Maybe mine is a V3.1????
I posted a pic of the V2 elsewhere on this thead.

Probably a slight modification to the batteries' slots, since my batteries do not snug in the slots of my chassis well enough. Oh, boy. I think I have to file it, then.

Once again, I like the FLM products but the development of their products is weak in comparison to UE or G-Maxx. Of course they are like 1/3 the price so.......
