7075 rc motor mount comb

I know how that is. Too many projects going on at once. Lol. All part of the fun, though.

quick update will take some pics before end of week, spent about 4 hours laying out different configurations

set-up #1: 7075 rc

pros: rotation and mounting in the rotated position is very easy

can use stock dogbones

solid mount

cons: bracing the chassis, even with a thicker chassis this would be weaker than stock

set-up #2: losi diff with rc-monster five-t mount

pros: its a diff

good mount, not as solid as 7075 rc

needs custom rear dogbone

fits easily and sturdy - 6mm screws

already have ideas for new chassis braces/upper deck

cons: heavier

spur is huge

a little more custom work ($$$$)

also undecided on cc bec pro or receiver pack, wont decide until CC gets back to me. the bec set-up would keep the Cog lower because i could mount the XL2 on the chassis

Awesome. Looking forward to the pics.

after some more tinkering, i am going with the losi diff.

anyone know of a high powered BEC for car use? the castle one can't handle the reverse voltage on the brakes.

Pics of the diff!

tonight i will take some

Lookin' forward to seeing this!

after soem research, there is no BEC capable of what i want. so i am getting a new receiver pack for this after i get the 2028 ordered in a week or two

pics are going to be off for a a bit as the machine shop i am working with has started the process of making my parts. after i get the stuff back i can send the modded stock chassis to ol fart so he can replicate in his sturdier version

Sweet. That just means more pics!

little update, just ordered lipo

started making rear center dogbone, making two as i will need a spare. will be sent out to be hardened while other parts are completed

waiting on lipo before mounting center diff permanently

contacting rc-monster for a custom lipo/esc tray, but will be last on the list as the diff and bracing need to be finished first to check for space availablilty

lastly will be 7075rc diffcases and steering rack

so i guess my leopard 5698 and 7075rc motor mount needs to get gone.......

Sounds good, dude.
