as long as you're not flying it that way!
seriously.....even smaller 7 amp batteries weigh 7 pounds or more....any crash could result in several G's, even at 7-8 G's that's equal to a force of 50 or more pounds suddenly coming from this battery alone.and most crashes would be more severe...I've seen batteries held in with Ty-wraps, Velcro, even packing and double sided tape...Velcro may be easy, but do you really need to risk this? tim "Brian Iten" wrote in message ... Our club Discus has a spot for a battery just aft of the rudder pedals but the straps are MIA. Is it safe to make new straps or use Velcro for attaching the battery hold down? Brian 17
