A bit on the Motor mount. First I had an older version Tekno Blue Motor mount with a CC 2650kv motor and a long shank pinion. Due to flex issues, I sold the motor and got a Castle 2200kv, along with the CF Chassis and RC Monster new gen motor mount. The newer design is made for the Revo 3.3 aluminum chassis, which doesn't have the flex in the motor area that the CF chassis does (The rest of the CF chassis, is actually stiffer than aluminum). I described my problem to Mike, and He sold me an older version of the lower plate of the motor mount, which allows me to mount it on the Nitro motor mount. This raises the Motor about 3/8', but there isn't a notable difference in handling or CG. There are now zero flex problems compared to the newer version motor mount. So for a Carbon fiber conversion, make sure you ask mike for an older version mount.
