JR-THS10-GU Battery Tray Upgrade

This gun metal aluminium battery holder is a hop-up designed to replace the plastic tray on TAMIYA Hotshot and Super Hotshot 1/10 models, built to the JR-THS10-GU mounting pattern. The machined alloy gives a firmer mounting surface while maintaining a subdued finish suitable for scale styling.

It is intended for Hotshot layouts that use the original TAMIYA battery retention footprint and installs using the chassis' existing screw points. No specialised tools are normally necessary beyond the standard hex driver used for the chassis. Verify the battery bay measurements prior to fitment.

By providing a rigid battery location, the tray minimises pack shift during hard driving and helps preserve consistent handling and electrical contact reliability. It makes a practical and durable replacement for drivers wanting improved pack security and cleaner wiring runs.

Is the JR-THS10-GU an exact bolt-in replacement?

Yes, it matches the standard TAMIYA Hotshot mounting pattern and uses the same screw locations as the original tray for straightforward installation.

What are the main benefits over the stock tray?

The aluminium tray increases rigidity, resists impact damage better than plastic and keeps the battery from moving under load, improving reliability on the track.

Do I need to alter my battery straps or ties?

Most users can reuse existing straps or secure the pack with standard ties; adjust routing for neatness but no special hardware is normally required.
