No, I didn't. Do they fail?

Plastic should work nicely for the rear support as long as it's ~3mm+ thick. And I don't think it necessarily has to be delrin, but that sure would work.

Actually, I wasn't planning on using the "swing-arm" Nitro mesh adjustment. It is made for a pinion that sits under the spur really. The traditional slotted holes you made would be better IMO since the motor sits more to the side. I guess you could use the swing arm mesh adjustment to tweak the angle of the mount to suit personal preference though.

I've never heard of a broken motor mount, even with using the 3.3, but it seems like it's kinda cheaply made. It does seem to hold though, so maybe I'm being too anal about it.


Oh, and apologies to Shark413 for hijacking his thread... :dft001:
