Devil Ejector chute for batteries

Something similar to the design I saw on a DC-3 where the batteries sit on a tray that slides up into the fuselage.

If things get a bit hot, the retaining latches can be made of low melting point metal and the battery is ejected

Sorry, could not hold back until April 1.
