Default Extended battery tray

Guys,

I was fed up with the Warp COG problems and my inability to properly strap down the pack when it was so far forward. So.... I created a small carbon fiber battery tray extender. COG is now perfect with a battery properly strapped down! It extends the battery tray about 1.5cm and gives me another solid anchor for a strap.

Nice mod but, you just have to buy the right packs man and you won't need it. The Warp needs heavier packs. In the 250-290 gram range. More and more packs come out for it all the time. I get perfect COG and I didn't even re-drill the canopy. I also still have the Chinese weights in the tail grips and am not even running CF tail blades.

I had a number of Warp issues but, honestly, that wasn't one of them although I do think the extension is a nice idea and the picture is appreciated.

I had Thor 1350s which had a bad case of "Dunlop's Disease" - as in the battery done lopped over the tray. I did re-drill the canopy, install the extended gizmo etc but the battery was handily dealt with by cinching it up on the available tray in a manner reminiscent of an obese person slipping into a girdle - it may have been a bit blue in the face when I was done but it wasn't going anywhere.
