So I would like to install an Odyssey P925 AGM to replace my Gill G-25 flooded battery as I fly acro.
Naturally, nothing is ever simple:
First problem is that while the battery fits well in the fore and aft direction, it does not fit in the side-by-side direction. Here is a photo of one side:
And here is a photo of the other side:
All told there's a total of about 7/8ths of an inch which has to be evenly split on both sides. So I need some way to fill that space in so the battery doesn't slip from one side to the other. Any ideas would be helpful.
Here is a photo of the battery tray with no battery in it:
You can see the long bolts that are used for the battery hold down. They are a little too short. So I will need longer ones. Can't tell what they are made of - what are usually used in this application?
Thanks!
