Wish I had a 3D printer. All my LiPos are for Altus Metrum GPS so are the same size. Do you know of anyone/company that will custom create?
For most of us, probably not, unless you are pulling some extreme G's. Because there is no "containment" on most lipo batteries, they can slump under high-G launches, making them look like a teabag, and shorting out.Do you need an enclosure? I use zip ties and that works fine for all the different types of batteries that I use.

Saw the results of a failed lipo at Black Rock one year (where there are some of the more powerful high-G flights), but luckily the backup used a standard 9v battery. Since then, I try to contain my lipos to prevent T-bagging.
That's backup, as in dual electronics, one on a lipo, one on a 9vThat's a great idea to have a 9 volt as a backup.
I build backup in my eBay. Electronics from two different manufacturers. Completely isolated systems.That's backup, as in dual electronics, one on a lipo, one on a 9v

I can do you a custom enclosure. Give me some dimensions for your battery and specs on what you want, such as how you want it mounted, how big is the sled or bay etc. A picture of your battery will help too. I can do the whole dang sled if you want. Send me a PM/conversation and we can hash it out.
I'll send some info later when I am not occupied by my day job. In the meantime, here is what the battery looks like,
Too easy.So with a little wiggle room to account for variations, we are looking at an interior well of 51mm x 31mm x 6mm. I was thinking along the lines of this 9V enclosure that mounts to the sled. The sled itself is 5.5" x 12.25"
