If RC Monster trucks can have replaceable battery packs, I imagine board vibration more than moisture has to be pretty severe to warrant permanent connections.

RC Monster trucks don't have people standing on them. Thus the force exerted through their wheels is far smaller.

Also they don't need to maintain ground clearance.

If nearly all of their beta testers didn't need replacible battery, then why add the complexity?
