Do this motor really have to have a rear brace? I was planning on running mine without one, but maybe that is a bad plan? On another motor I had, I used a piece of 1/2" plastic with a saddle cut to fit under the motor. Then it was mounted to the chassis.

It probably doesn't have to have a brace, but this motor is big and heavy. I'm worried about the g-maxx motor mount bending/flexing over jumps.


Actually, now that I looked up the data sheet on the Feigao XL, its not any heavier than the XL that I have been running and its actually shorter.?.? I guess the increased diameter just makes it appear much larger. Maybee I'll give it a try with just a block under the back to support it on landings and see how that goes.


I can't decide if its more fun
to make it...
or break it...

Glassdoctor made a rear brace for his Neu motor. It's pretty cool, but you'll have to wait for him to chime in...
