Stiffen your Sakura D5S with a carbon battery tray

The 3Racing Sakura D5S Carbon Fiber Battery Plate, model SAK-D526, replaces the standard tray to cut weight while preserving a solid attachment point for the pack. Crafted from reliable carbon fibre, it blends low mass with the stiffness needed for predictable handling on mixed surfaces.

Performance advantages of the plate

An upgrade like this reduces rotating and overall vehicle weight, which can yield faster responses and improved midcorner balance. The added rigidity also helps the chassis deliver power more evenly through turns.

Installation pointers for consistent results

Fit the plate with the chassis hardware supplied or reuse original fasteners where appropriate. After the first few sessions, re-torque each screw and check the plate for any signs of movement to keep your setup consistent.

The plate uses the same mounting points as the stock tray, so standard straps or holders remain compatible. Ensure your chosen securing method keeps the pack tight against the plate.
Carbon fibre is strong but can crack under severe impact. It offers superior stiffness, but inspect the plate after heavy impacts and replace if you find any structural damage.
After swapping to a lighter plate, a quick check of front to rear balance is sensible. Small weight shifts can be corrected with setup changes like battery position or shock tune.
