Big update today. I've got the batteries all mounted up, new spur fitted, mechanical brakes tuned & working fine with the reprogrammed 9920, and modified the motor plate to let the rear dogbone clear without binding. Also disassembled the entire rear end and cleaned it all up. Had to use a blunt knife to get the crap out the wishbones it was that filthy when I first got it.
My battery mount on one side I'm very happy with, but on the other side, I've had to offset it, to clear the brakes. Does everyone else do this, or is there a way to re-run the brakes? At the min that side flexes a bit so I'm not happy with it.
Also needs a new pair of front braces thanks to the last owner, and I noticed the tvp's are also tweaked when I was drilling them for the batts, so I'll be picking the FLM ones up next month. It'll still run though. I've done a full electronics test on the bench and its good to go. Even the two speed is shifting at what I believe is the correct point.
Unfortunately it doesn't look like I can fit the warrior inside the tvp's, as i'll risk having the cables get chewed up on the spur, and I don't have anything kicking about to fabricate a good cover with. For the min I'm gonna mount it roughly where you see it in the pics, unless anyone has a better suggestion :) Should be safe there and have good ventilation.
