Crt .5 mount in store! - 05.09.2007, 10:32 AM

Hey guys just saw the new mount mike just listed!

I can wait to see what he has in store for the spur issue! :)


The problem with nitro's these days are that they arent brushless... LOL

Sweet! I knew it wouldn't be long. The spur solution shouldn't be too far behind...

okay... we're almost there. I want to place 1 order: mount, spur conversion and pinions (which pitch to buy). It is nice to see the mount. Holding off till the spur is done....

I went ahead and ordered the mount. It's risky to wait since Mike could go out of stock on the mounts by the time the spur is ready.

Will this mount be compatible with the new (soon to be available) spur options? I assume so, however thought it better to be certain.

The idea is to use a plastic spur that will allow the use of the factory chassis holes - so, the spur will be a custom type that will allow this. However, I don't expect the spur to be as cheap as the typical Kyosho since it will be custom.

With the hardened pinions i don't think you really need a plastic spur anymore. They seem to be tough.

They do seem tough, providing mesh is correct and consistent (no flex). I just wonder about longevity compared to plastic on steel. Also, they're louder when running. Still much quieter than a nitro though. :)

Where can I get mod 1 hardened 1/8 bore pinions? I do not see them on Mike's site.

Thanks...
Jon

Mike does have (or can get/make) a little adaptor sleeve that lets you use 1/8" shaft on a 5mm bore.
