Just to fill in some gaps.

the centre shafts i am using are TRX revo CVD's. The ones that go from the diffs to the wheels. They are the perfect length however they have a little movement in the CV cup.

I was originally going to have the motor mounted above the CD by using the RCM universal CD/motor mount. however this was in stock so i used the CD, motor mount and chassis brace out of my Hyper STe Pro. This gives me a very low CG but i am limited to using 1515'ish sized motors.
