Yeah, i'll be running one servo... The upper plate was deigned when I was still running the traxxas gear box (two speed).
When it decided to go with the CD, I kept the second mounting position... The receiver will be mounted there when I'm ready to make the final assembly.

The CD mount:

Well I did some work on the CD mount last... Had to make some cuts on the lower plat to facilitate the M4 screws that held the LX one towers to the CD mounting plate. It worked well enough not to look
like an after thought... The Savage XL center drive shafts are just perfect for this project (got them for $8.00 on ebay ).

Have a look....












For the re-build I'm going to add some washers to the bolts going through the mounting plate and chassis brace



I did a little test on the motor mount to see if would have any flex... It didn't, but the OFNA CD towers did... I'm going to keep an eyes open for a pair of aluminum ones...
I have seen them before, but I can't remember where


I did a rough fitting of the electrics (please ignore the masking tape ) to see if everything would work together. Wow!!! I love the hacker c50... It had so much torque when it started...
It looks good so far... No binding and no funny smells . I slapped on the bow-ties to see how it would roll... Damn... torque!! I did the test with the 18 tooth pinion and it
cogged like crazy, but when it got going... it was not easy to stop.
