I think he needs to not only use 70 series, but needs an increase in the moment of inertia around the outside. This can be accomplished in many different ways, the challenge is in making it "universal" for everyones different applications. Possibly the most universal method may be to increase the height some, and make it thicker, then recess the area where the motor contacts the mount (kind of a mini can like the Tekno mounts).

ANyway you look at it, its going to be a more expensive mount system, and take up more room on the chassis. Personally, I could live with those.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
