Freeze's Savage Flux "Frostbyte II" build thread

[reno911]

Love the grub screw idea, I would have never thought of something like that. Going to LHS tomorrow to pick up a bunch of them to do the same.

It does sound like a good idea, but what if one vibrates loose to the inside? I know hes putting loctite on them, but im just saying...

Well I'd use red-loctite... but what about like just putting tape over them? Like electrical tape, or something more sticky like gorilla tape?

Hmm actually red loctite isn't a bad idea considering the heat and vibration that motor is gonna put out. I actually just checked my blue loctited screws and they wern't very attached at all, which surprised me.

I'm gonna put on some red loctite and see if they stay on tight and let you know what I find.

Hey FREEZE glad to see your back at it!
What about just using a little high temp. black silicone?
The red thread lock is apita to get back apart if you ever decide to use that motor in another build or decide to sell it.

I suppose you could do that also, it's just gonna look crappy IMO. My Tork motor isn't going to be going anywhere either

Hence the loctite You could use electric tape also. I did it last year on my Flux but it looks really tacky.....
