Question LiPos - I give!

You guys seem to be able to get various brands of batteries to fit in the BL. I just bought two EFlight 300ma batteries and they DO NOT FIT! I even cut the cross brace on the battery cage and they still will not fit. Understand this is the battery called out in the owners manual. I called Horizon and they said what do you want us to do?

I looked up all the measurements of the batteries and everyone I looked up was bigger than the battery cage hole.

How are you guys getting the Turnigys and other brands to fit? What am I missing?

In my BL, the eFlite battery fits perfectly, the Nano's are just slightly oversized and my Pulse Battery is so oversized that I can only get it in there after removing the canopy so I can use two hands to help guide the thing in there. The Pulse battery actually makes the battery holder looser for the other batteries. I personally will probably not buy Pulse batteries for the BL anymore.

Just to clarify my statement above, I forgot that the LiPo that came with my BL is actually a 200mah eFlite battery, not a 300mah as I may have impied, so that is why it fits fine, as it was the battery the heli was designed around.
