Custom Carbon Fiber Brushless RC8T Pics

[Ryu James]

here is the build pics of version 4 as promised. still needs some adjusment though. because the center diff sits so high off the chassis with the RCM conversion i had to use 3 shims on the servo stands and 1/8" of spacers on the servo arm and the servo still doesnt sit high enough. so i am going to somehow try to make the setup work without the huge center diff shim.

i also had to use a Tekno long shank pinion after making the spacer so that the motor can didnt rub the brakes. anyway, the pics tell the story for the most part.

i also move the esc behind the battery. looks much cleaner.





2 pices of 3mm carbon glued together for a 6mm piece. just enough to clear the brakes now. one side had to be ground down to clear the brakes. 2 screws hold the piece against the motor and the other two screws hold themotor to the mount.
