For weight distribution
Do you have a video of it taking the battery out? It will help a lot!!
You’ll generally get better results in that regard by putting the battery on whatever side of your robot needs the ballast rather than the center. Most architectures have a pretty uneven weight distribution, plus the side with the least weight generally has the least going on and will often be the most convenient to access.

One more thought on screws. Especially in plastics like 3D printed polymers, the screw is much harder than the material it’s being threaded into. Any misalignment and you can cross-thread. Too high of torque and you can strip it. If those threads get stripped, then you are drilling and tapping a new hole.
If you have to get something on and off hundreds of times, a bolt may not be the optimal solution. Look at over center latches or other non-threaded fastening methods if you think that might be a problem
This was an early video.

where is the battery handle part studio because I can find in the "NERD Spark 9312 Swerve Test Bot " cad
There is a folder called Battery. All of the 3D printed parts are there.
Is there a part studio that I can modify for the handle A and B? and aslo when i try to export it from assembly I get this "Document does not exist or you do not have permission to export. "
Export should be working now. You should also be able to copy the file to your own OnShape Account.
I’ve downloaded it as a stp file and placed it here:
I see the word COPY in your onshape title. Could you have made a copy of it in your own account?
Also, you should not have write access to our master files. Your screen shot looks like you have write access. This is what is should look like when you only have read access:
Notice the menu bar at the bottom.
I believe the screenshot is from a copy of the master document since the name ends with " - Copy"

I don’t have access to the master doc
Not sure what is going on. Let me know if that Google link doesn’t work.
