I'm trying to use batman-adv to fix wifi signal problems with a few Raspberry Pis.

batman-adv doesn't change your wifi signal. So I am assuming that your main access point wasn't able to cover the whole area and so you use multiple accesspoint and use mesh as a backbone between them.

Is there a way to force batman-adv to use a stable MAC address?

ip link set dev bat0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX

There might be a configuration option in whatever configuration interface you use to bring up the interfaces.

Kind regards, Sven
