As it won't need the gearbox anymore, the IRS gearbox, hydraulic clutch system & driveshafts came out today.

Got the battery box back from the CNC folding company today, so some mockup of the first two battery modules after fitting the support rails

Photo with the battery modules removed to show the support rails.
