Purpose-built battery plate by 3Racing

The 3Racing Sakura D5MRGA Graphite Battery Plate SAK-D557/GR is made for the Sakura D5 and D5S chassis to provide a light but stiff mounting surface. Its graphite composition helps centralise mass and improve the chassis response expected in race-focused setups.

Material advantages for tuning and balance

Graphite's high stiffness to mass ratio reduces excess weight while keeping the battery location rigid. That yields steadier rotation, improved turn-in and a more consistent balance across different track conditions.

Compatibility and straightforward fitting

The plate matches Sakura D5 fixing points for a no-fuss replacement and secures the battery to limit movement during hard laps. Built to endure frequent track use, it is a practical upgrade for dedicated racers and club drivers alike.

The plate accommodates the typical stick and low profile LiPo formats used in Sakura D5 builds, but check your pack dimensions to confirm a flush fit.
Yes, the stiffer battery mount can alter chassis balance slightly; you may need to adjust ballast or spring rates to fine tune handling.
The graphite finish resists everyday wear but avoid sharp impacts; inspect edges and mounting points periodically for any signs of stress.
