And again, countersunk the holes:


Another scary moment. Does it fit. It does!:


Chassis layout without electronics:


I've covered the nitro layout holes with duct tape and filled the holes with some chemical metal. I wasn't too careful and the weather made it cure in a flash so it came out a bit messy. I'll leave it as it is for now since I'm a bit uncertain if the chemical metal will stick to the chassis when put under stress. Time will tell!

The hole for the flywheel is still there. I will probably mount a plate on the inside of the chassis and fill it with chemical metal if my other fillings will hold.


A bit of electronics has found their way into the chassis. Still need to clean this mess up. I've got a cable tie mounted in a bad place and simply forgot to remove it. Placed it there to keep the wires in place will I was mounting the servo.


I've made some mistakes a long the way. There's a chance the batteries can touch the spur in a bad crash but I placed some spacers, facing the batteries, on the motor mount to prevent this from happening.
My countersink was a bit too large so it didn't turn out as good as I would've liked.
