Can anyone tell me or have a link to an image on how, where and which way a brass collector fitted on an MG34. Given the size of the battery compartment and the size of the lipo's I have I thought this was a good and quick way of housing my battery when fitted to the gun. Cheers, Tony
Latest: I found measurements and pics and have made one to the best of my abilities

Cheers mate, I will take a look and post any pics once made.
Brass catcher made and attached.
Inside I have attached a waterproof bag to keep the batteries dry.
I have made an extension cable which attaches to the MG's Deans connector. At the battery end I have made a splitter cable which can attach either a Tamiya or Deans connector battery.
Inside the waterproof bag is part of an elasticated emergency bandage which holds 2 batteries. This is attached to the aluminium box that the brass catcher bag is attached to.
Both lipo's, 1 connected and 1 in reserve pack neatly into the waterproof bag.
Just need to paint the rivets black and then its complete. It also works perfectly.
Well done, mate, looks boss.

Give me a big enough hammer and a place to stand and I could fix the world.
i'll kill a man in a fair fight or if i think he's going to start a fair fight or over a woman or.......
a problem shared is a problem halved ,but an advantage shared is no advantage at all
if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well
Ace job mate. deffo going to nick the idea spot on for hiding the mags on my DP28 project.

Glad I gave you an idea mate Thanks for the replies gents. It does help that the missus is a seamstress as she made the bag
Just had a brainwave and found out that the PEQ Lipo will also fit alongside the 9v battery in the drum mag with ease
so I am going to do an extension cable to the drum mag and use the brass catcher as a back up if I need to fit it for my larger batteries.
Look really good Tony, top work that man!
Aha! Ive been looking for a solution to my battery housing problem for the 42. I assume its perfectly fine to mount one on an mg42?
Very well done by the way, excellent manufacture
Also, pardon me for posting on a thread that's been asleep for a few months

No probs mate and you can actually get original brass catchers for the 42 quite easily so no need to make one. Just wire it up
They do indeed, a quick search on ebay proved fruitful
