Well my LS10 has been doing AMAZING after i got the new motor. The motor and esc arent even past 115 after 20 minute runs, the battery averages about 95, also i have yet to run the battery all the way to the cutoff but after running twenty minutes straight it only used 2100 mah out of my 5000 3s, Does this sound right? i wasn't babying it either, I was making it do flatground backflips and tons of highspeed runs and wheelies on pavement.

so after i did two different days of testing it decided it was time to see how well it handled in the air. This is were it started to go down hill, NOT with how the truck handles jumps (jumps like an extremly overpowered 1/8th scale buggy, which is a great thing), its where i found some parts including some of mine werent strong enough for even light bashing at the skate park.

so after breaking a body mount, twisting my motor mount and just about losing my battery i had to do a little thinking, and i came up with this cradle mount dual setup using mike's clamp to tie them together. we dropped the truck from the second story in the hangar and all we got was a loud chassis slap nothing bent or loose. so hopefully it quit this raining and i can air it out tomorrow, All i had to do to the battery box was add two small little end pieces to keep the battery from going for and aft. I also wanted a little bigger bashing and jumping tire to help take the hits better, a set of MOAB M3 compound which are so soft they prolly wont last really long. I have some body mounts ordered but until then i have an elstic pull strap out of a jacket bottom that loops around the shock tower and through the two body holes.



here are the pics, btw i know the tires arent all going the sameway, it was before i glued them and ive fixed it since then.

Who thinks this motor mount will hold up to the torcher that I want to do to it?
