Ftx tracer battery fixing snapped - help

[Nerocircus]

Hi

On my son’s ftx tracer, the small piece of plastic on the chassis where the battery strap feeds through to double back on itself (closest to servo) has snapped. Think I’ve over tightened the Velcro if I’m honest after the first time we had it out and the battery worked it’s way loose. Had put a larger battery in and not realised I could remove the foam pad at this point! 
 

without changing the chassis (which looks like a lot of effort to my layperson mind) is there any other way I could secure the battery well? 

 

it’s not letting me upload an image so i hope I’ve explained it clearly. 

thanks

ive used velcro on the chassis and battery before to hold a battery in place. Probably not a long term solution but may help in  the short term

Could try decent double sided Velcro?

Good call, I’ll give this a try. 

On another note, having not ordered from BG before - do they not ship to the uk anymore? Read some stuff suggesting they don’t, but it allow me to select uk when ordering so… 🤔

great, fingers crossed then.  Still says processing but they’ve been in touch to cancel the other part of my order for some spare bits.
