RC-monster revo mount not fitting

Were you not provided two rear supports? I did have a problem with mine as well a few years back, I had to file the support down a bit as it was putting far too much pressure upwards on the motor.

no,i bought it second hand and it only came with one concave piece that bolts to the bak of the mount,looks like im going to have to bust out the dremel...--josh

Yea, you probably have the rear brace that you don't need, and don't have the one you do need!

Do you have the solid one or the one with holes drilled in it? The solid one is for motors with an overall diameter of 42mm, and the one with holes in it is for motors with an overall diameter of 36mm.

I am running a CC/Neu 2200kV motor on my RCM Revo motor-mount and the solid brace is a perfect fit! Don't forget to leave the rear brace loose until you get your mesh set and the motor tightened down, then tighten the rear brace. Also, use a longer than needed screw with a jam-nut so you can wrap a zip-tie around the motor and the part of the screw sticking out of the rear brace to secure the motor to the brace in case you land on your lid hard, it keeps the mount from flexing and screwing a lot of things up...I learned the hard way!

I'll check. I think i have both rear pieces at home. If i'm right, you can have both...

I bought that back when Mike first came out with them, and it only came with the one. I'm not really sure if it was supposed to come with more than one, since its the older style mount.

Hey buddy. Send me a PM with your address. I have both and no longer need them. I'll mail them over.
