XLPower Nimbus 550 / 550 V2 Battery Tray

Nice quality cut carbon fiber. Not much to say, the trays are a few dollars cheaper than other companies’ trays for their 550 size machines… and the Nimbus 550 is all about being high quality with a lower cost to repair, so it can be a daily basher that you can afford to push the limits with. The straps that are included are just a wide version of XLPower’s hook and loop tape, this is where the cost savings come in for the company and passed on to the consumer. I don’t know if this style battery strap would become an issue, I assume they are well tested- however I will be using standard style straps that have buckles to get the packs strapped in tight. As advice given by Nick Maxwell, tightly strap your packs onto the trays to reduce flex in the airframe as well as any residual inertia after a rolling maneouver.

great replacement parts

I wish cooked with the service but the package has not yet arrived

Always amazing service with helidirect

of all Helicopter I have, the nimbus battery tray is the most simple, and elegantly designed.

extra battery trays are always needed and these slide in great

The replacement battery tray and straps work same as the original one that came w/ the Nimbus 550 kit. Note that the handle must be ordered separately. I don't use that so not a big deal to me.

Works great.
