there are much simplier solution prefenting fall feigao to apart


And your buggy weight will be very high. Try to simplify things. Dp not use thick Aluminium, find solution for lightweight battery holders, and brake servo holder. Save some weight.
I was realy dissapointed first time of weight and handling of my truggy now I reassemble it again but try to save weight much as possible

tom255, thanks for the feedback, I like your motor clamps, were they handmade? And how do you adjust gear mesh? I agree about keeping things light, my buggy is over 9 lbs with a battery. Yeah my mount looks really thick because I wanted a big footprint (mount base to chassis) for strength and I do plan on milling it down and making it lighter. Is that a mini servo on your brake? how is it working out?
