Race Grade Battery Mount Upgrade for Kyosho LAZER ZX-5

The Kyosho LAZER ZX-5 Aluminum Battery Post Set by 3Racing ZX5-26/BU is produced to tight tolerances to ensure repeatable battery placement and minimise play under load. These aluminium posts are a direct upgrade over moulded items, offering improved mechanical coupling between the battery and chassis during competitive driving.

Material and Performance Considerations

Aluminium is selected here for its strength to weight and resistance to fatigue. In a racing context, the stiffer mount reduces micro movement that can translate to inconsistent handling and variable electrical contact under high g loads.

Fitting and Setup Recommendations

Install the posts with correct torque values and verify alignment with the battery pack. For race prep, use medium strength threadlocker on fasteners and schedule a quick hardware check between heats to confirm retention and electrical integrity.

What tolerance should I expect on the post fitment?

Expect tight, repeatable seating designed for the LAZER ZX-5 tray with minimal lateral play to support consistent lap to lap setup.

Are these posts suitable for frequent pit adjustments?

Yes, they are designed for repeated removal and installation while maintaining thread integrity, though use of correct torque and occasional thread inspection is advised.

Do these posts affect centre of gravity or balance?

Any added mass is minimal and located at the battery bay; handling changes are negligible compared with battery weight and placement changes, so tune balance with weight distribution first.
