No they are not supposed to be but most are. Alot of people, myself included and built a custom trex style battery holder. I think extreme productions even makes one for it now. Or you can go with the tried and true piece of wood to extend your battery holders.

When I first got it, I had to add weight to the front of my HBK2 with the stock components and 1000mah battery to get it to balance - but now with all the upgrades (literally every component except the cyclic servos - including a smaller, lighter receiver) and 1800mah battery it balances perfectly. I thought this suggested that the HBK2 was really designed for a bigger motor and battery than it came with...
