Refine MD1.0LTS Handling with a Graphite Battery Plate

The Yokomo MD-118PL Graphite Battery Plate is an upgrade created for the MD1.0LTS chassis that relocates the battery into a higher mount. Made from graphite, the plate aims to improve fore-and-aft balance and handling predictability while remaining robust for regular track use.

Performance Reasons to Choose Graphite

Graphite is valued for being lightweight and stiff, helping reduce unsprung effects and preserving strength where it matters. Fitting the MD-118PL can lead to steadier behaviour in fast corners and more controlled weight transfer under braking.

Tailored Fit for MD1.0LTS Chassis Geometry

Designed to suit the MD1.0LTS, the Yokomo MD-118PL integrates with the chassis mounting points for a tidy installation. Elevating the battery position can alter traction balance and make steering response more immediate, useful for drivers chasing a sharper setup.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will the MD-118PL work with my existing radio wiring?

Most radio and ESC wiring can be routed to suit the higher battery position, but check that leads remain clear of moving parts and are not stressed by bends. Re-route as needed for neatness and safety.

Is graphite likely to crack from impacts?

Graphite is durable for normal race use but can fracture under severe impact. Inspect the plate after heavy crashes and replace it if you spot any fractures or deep damage to maintain safe mounting.

Are any setup changes recommended after installation?

Yes. Raising the battery affects balance, so small changes to spring preload, anti-roll settings or tyre pressures may be needed to recover your preferred handling character.
