My Brushless 8ight Project

[DRIFT_BUGGY]

I forgot to mention that I cut out alittle bit on the body to get some air flow to the motor. The motor doesn't seem to get much air flow to it from where it is. There was also a new sticker put on the back of the body. It might of also helped with the cooling.





I also required longer screws for the skid plate to go on properly. The standard screws are 8-32 x 1/2" Flat Head and that is the longest that Losi make. Associated make some 8-32 x 7/16" Flat Head screws which retail for $6 for a pack of 6 in Australia. That works out to be $1 each. I went down to my local fastener shop and ordered 50 x 8-32 x 3/4" flat head phillips stainless steel screws. 50 of them cost me $11. Minimum eftpos was $10 so I ended up ordering 50 of them. Doesn't hurt to have some spare.
