  I have managed to put a nice crack in the bottom of my battery area.
  
  When I put the batteries in it pushes the crack further apart and (about 2-3 mm) which in turns sometimes cuts the power
  
  What I would like to know is whats a good glue, or agent, i can use to stick it back together, while still havine a tiny bit of flex?

  If you’re talking about an MA-010, exactly the same thing happened to me.
  
  I used Araldite and cf, then bent the battery terminals back about 1 mm. No probs since.

  Zap-A-Gap from hobby shops. Much stronger than super glue. Shoe Goo allows flex but unfortunately can be peeled off with a little bit of elbow grease but the bond is no where as strong as zap-a-gap. I use this stuff to bond tyres to 1:10 rims.

  Mate, I’m still using shoe goo for exactly that purpose..
  
  Only now I go through a pair of knees every month :p

  nah, you must be talking about contact adhesive (Gel Grip etc). Shoe Goo sets as a tough, hard CLEAR rubber.
