Otherwise your setup looks good...
Hi Lincpimp aka also brushless LST owner!

I can't flex the motor mount by hand, but I'm only 15, so I haven't got much muscles But my father helped yesterday to make the motor mount, and he also couldn't bend it with his hands. I/my dad bent it with a hammer and a other thing, and it was pretty hard to bent it. (I forget the English word for that other thing. Here a pic of it: http://www.proximedia.com/catalogue/photos/169786_a.jpg)
And if it will bend I'll buy me the TDRacing motor mount I think...
