Doesnt help that the metal I used was some nameless aluminum, rather than a specific grade like 6061 etc. I found the 6083 I used for the custom bottom plate to be brilliant- a fair bit stronger than 6061, but cheaper than 7075. Custom battery plate is for sale if anyone wants it, just PM me an offer. |
what motor is that niel?
|
BidProduct C50 9XL. The details are in the general discussion section, under 'attack of the clones'.
|
looks like a good motor lets hear how it does
|
Now that just looks mean Neil :diablo: Love the black/silver/purple combination.
|
Thanks, I quite like it myself (coming to terms with the purple, lol).
Made another custom motor mount, this time it mounts the motor on the other side, and lowers it down to the 3 o'clock posistion almost: http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...otormount1.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...otormount2.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...otormount3.jpg I have to say though, this aluminum is crap- you can scratch it with your nail almost. I may well just buy a proper one in the future from Gorillamaxx, or use decent alloy that is hardend and a good grade. |
Looking great Neil....Did lowering the CG (motor mount) affected the performance?
Lets get her on the dirt and take some vids :lol: |
No idea, I only finished it a couple hours ago, and the weather today was horrid again. Its ment to be drier though for the next few days up until monday, so hopefully we will be seeing it in action.
I only made this mount so that I had more gearing adjustment room, plus it lowers the motor below the line of the body posts abit more, so less likely to hit the motor and bend the mount if I get upside down. |
Just for Neil!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_pH-z1_KdE PS Nice mount! Can I commision one! But to mount on the other side... ;) |
:lol:
I was thinking more like 'purple rain' by Prince, but Prince's lawyers remove all the tracks from youtube to protect the legal rights, bah. |
Well, tested it- performs like a feigao pretty much, just cheaper and nicer looking :D

Neil - LMK if i can help...
|
Nasty:gasp: how did that happen?? hurts just looking at it. Any damage to the servo plate and front bulks?
