Hey guys I have gotten alot of stuff done over the past week.
I realized how heavy the rear of my truck was, and wanted to lighten it up in preparation for racing... so I started to take parts off and weigh them.. come to find out that the motor mount that came with the truck was heavy as hell! ~245g. Its made out of some mystery metal, its really heavy, really stiff and not magnetic.


So last night i got to work on a peice of 2x2 aluminum. Its mounted to the chassis with 2 countersunk m4 screws. about an hour later with the aid of a drill press and a dremel this is what I came up with. 44g! dropped 200g on the mount alone!



Secondly I got a spektrum sr3000 from a friend, and bough a module for my M8. got the module installed and modded the case so the antenna fit's in the stock location- it looks pretty trick








here are some other random pics.



Also Got my lipo back from linc, great job
