Default Home made skids

Guys, just wanted to share some new skids I just made. This is from the recipe of the infamous Dr. Dremel

Only I used the battery holder from some Xtreme skids I had lying around (broken).

This is a really good solution, and I'm hoping this might be the unbreakable skids...

The pins are often the weakest point, which the screws should eliminate. And that large piece of lexan should be tough too. Covered in real carbon sticky sheet

(the last pic show a way to toughen up the original Xtreme skids too, using two front pieces and a screw)
