7075.it T4’19 brass weights

Coming from 7075.it are new Xray T4’19-specific brass option parts in the form of a battery holder and battery plate. Starting with the battery holder, the part attaches to the layshaft mount and it acts as a battery stop in order to prevent the LiPo pack from moving under various racing conditions. The item was redesigned to allow the use of countersunk hardware while the new appearance also sets it apart from counterfeit products.
