I need to update with some pics.... tomorrow...

I made a new motor plate (plastic not even good enough to test with... ruined a brand new spur) out of carbon fiber... 6mm.

Had to hack together a new spur gear.. using an old kyosho plastic gear and a Savage plastic gear. It worked pretty slick but I messed it up a little... explain later. Still runs fine for now.

Added some side skirts to the battery mounting things... so they are all boxed in tight. Now I need to find some different straps.

Finally I can run it without grinding gears... it's punchy as he11. I dropped in the 1512 1700kv with 12/52 gearing...

I'm getting a 1515 for it but I'm not sure it needs more than the 1512. I will know better after getting some wheel time tomorrow I hope.
