Need a battery clip Cheep

Are you do is buy 4 picture clips, used to hang pictures with. I will give you a piture to look at, so you will know what size to use. Put 2 piture clips on each side, put the clips in the top and bottom groove. It is where the regular battery clip fits at, do that to all 4 of them.
When i tryed it, it looked like it made it react faster to the motor, made it pick up a bit faster. The only problem is taking them off and Back on. Plus they dont weigh as mush as the stock battery clips do.

yea but if you use tape, it will get out of stickyness. Because you got to change the batteries. If you dont take the batteries out, when you are not using them, then then the batteries will be losing power. Causing your vehicle not to go as fast as it did go. It drains alot if you use it, and make the batteries very hot. And then you keep them in, then the motor takes the energy off the batteries. And i had expirenced over it, i had new batteries in it. And it dint but take like 3 to 4 days, and my batteries where dead. I din't even get to use them for 20min. (This was running on the orginal 4 cell).

there not just made out of any metal. The ones i have are made out of copper. I think that is what is used in the Xmod wires. Very good at conducting to electricity, causing it to have more power flow to the motor. Plus they have a way better hold, then the stock battery clip.

It is ok, i found my xmod clips, like a day ago. I need to know, if i could get a new controler for my Xmod. If i bought a new controler, how much would it be?

The reason is i droped my controler, and it made the racing crystal loose inside the controler. So even if i buy a new racing crystal, it will still be loose. The little holder that holds the racing crystal, got scratched up. And it caused the holes to stretch, i think maybe the problem of my range.

If you want any info i can give you a picture of the inside, of my Xmod controler.

I have this 25v motor, and it is the same size of the xmod motor. Do you think there could be a way, to run it on the Xmod?

if you take a very fine tipped pick or a toothpick and put it above one of the tabs that holds the crystal in and lightly press down and do the same thing on the other side too. that should fix the problem.
