RC-Monster Xray XB808 mount pictures
Hey guys. Just thought I'd share a few photos of Mikes latest creation. Its a new mount for the Xray XB808. Its got a new feature on it that is a first for the electric motor mounts. It is a 2 piece mount that makes the dif accessible from the top for easy maintenance and tuning.
Here are a few pictures. I ran this prototype version last week and was perfect. It wont be available in the store for a few weeks, but its comming soon. I hope he eventualy gets around to updating all of the mounts with this 2 piece desing. Its like a factory piece. Nice work Mike. Just thought I'd share. Heres some pics. http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...8/CIMG3422.jpg http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...8/CIMG3425.jpg http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...8/CIMG3426.jpg http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...8/CIMG3427.jpg http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h2...8/CIMG3434.jpg |
wow that is sweet i hope he makes the rc8 mounts like that i went to switch diff fluid today and removed the top plate and then realized it all has to come out
|
good deal, I am glad I waited to convert an 808, does this use the 808 height mount, or do you still have to get the XB8 part?
|
It's sized to work with the 808 height center dif mount.
|
I'm extremely jealous you got that before me… LOL.LOL.LOL….
|
Dont worry. It shouldnt be too long.
|
lol go to sleep
|
I am loving that design. If only he came out with these nice innovations earlier. :lol: Well hopefully by my next conversion, all the mounts will be like this. :wink:
Great job Mike! :great: |
Wow! I think this is the first time for him to cut a motor mount out of a 7075 grade aluminum. It'll be a bit expensive that way, but stronger for sure.
|
Thats pretty nifty! I like it!
Looks expensive LOL, might as well anodize them black to! =) |
Looks very nice indeed! Jeff, can you tell if the mount is spaced such that you could fit mechanical brakes without a spacer (when using smaller pinions)?
|
That looks sweet

2pc Design is AWESOME! I hope other mounts get the 2pc treatment.
|
That design is perfect....easy access to diff. changing gears,etc...
|
Argh... I now need to replace 3 RCM mounts.
|
now i really want an 808
|
this is something ive been wishing for every time i have to access my diff. me wants one for my hyper! looks awesome.
|
Mike should be making a mount for the LRP S8-BX and the SH Z-Car at the moment, I wonder if it will be 2 piece.
|
Count me in for 2 8ight motormounts of this design, 7075 alu top!!!
|
Are these out yet??
|
They are supposed to be at the heat treater right now. Mike has been expecting them back any day for a while now, allong with the RC8 and RC8T chassis. Any day now hopefully.
(Ive been bugging him too. I want another one :mdr:) |
I love the design! Hopefully Mike will do the others that way. I'd replace the mugen one I just bought from him in a heartbeat!
|
A+ work there.
|
Great work again from Mike , think most of us would be happy to replace our current one piece RCM mounts with his new two piece designs if he decides to do so .
|
any news on this mount?
|
Supposedly back from the annodizer and the kits are being made up along with the RC8 and RC8T chassis setups. Hopefully they are in the store in a day or 2.
Cmon Mike! I want another one. lol :wink: |
Got boned again by the anodizer - nothing is here yet! We used a new source for the anodize process - they aren't as fast as the usual source - hopefully the quality justifies the time, but the time is starting to get on my nerves!
