Dual Battery Mod
- Thread starter Rocket_Aus
- Start date
I need to print up some of my battery saddles now that I have white filament for my fellow dual battery folks.
I should have posted a picture, but this is what I have on my quad. I have my FAA ID 3d'd on the side as shown too (kills 2 birds with 1 stone). You unbolt the legs and then slide them down. No zip ties/drilling/etc required. They just simply rest on the trangle lightbridge antenna inserts and have been great for me.
There are two slots for velcro straps.
And before I get banned or anything, I'm not a business ... just a dude with a 3d printer who likes to help out. If any of you have a 3d printer I'd be happy to attach the STL or put it on thingiverse for you.

Hope the designer doesn't mind, I uploaded to Shapeways. They want $15 each and looks like $4.99 for shipping. www.shapeways.comHow much for a pair shipped to NJ? I don't have a 3D printer
After reading this thread one thing wasn't clear was if you needed to take the whole body of the stock battery off to mod it (you don't). I didn't mind popping off the cover, but didn't want to have to take the whole battery case off, looked like a pain. I went back through and re-read this thread and found this pic (thanks to whomever this is thanks and, nice hand too):
I then realized that I could get my dremel out and cut out a chunk of plastic and make it work, so I did. Gotta get some wire and XT60 and pull out the soldering iron, but otherwise i'm ready to go

Yep no need to take it apart

What does your regular DJI battery give you that you're using with those? If mine don't give me at least 12 minutes I toss them
They don't say much about it at all,
