This is AirWolf 3D version I bought for my Shelby. I works and as you can see the battery is put in from the bottom as you expand the split. I like your concept, if flexibility is an issue maybe a few angular gussets on the outside perimeter would help without going crazy. Wish you a lot of luck with the design. I paid $60 from Airwolf but it is now $150 I think. Price points are important!
I checked out their design as well. Definitely an interesting solution to the design problem.

We are engineering the piece to be as efficient as possible from a Strength, Weight, Material and Cost perspective.

Our solution will be well under the $150 price point. We feel that is a little too much but understand that other solutions take a lot more print time and material.

I was happy to read that you're working on the tie down. I personally would not be comfortable relying on the battery cabling to retain the battery. No way were the cables designed for that. I also think it's unlikely that an unrestrained battery would pass any tracks safety/ tech inspection.
Good luck with your project.
