"thinking about getting a laser cut plate up top to mount the ESC.. dont know how much I like this spot..."
I have ALL of my esc on top of the center diff. I actually prefer it there as apposed to mounted on the chassis
1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S
Knowing CAD and having a buddy with a laser helps some times.. made a little top plate for the ESC that uses a traxxas mount rrom my REVO (new one on its way from ebay). And some lipo trays I think i will weld on caps so they dont slide out the front or back.. now I just have to drill/tap/counter sink the trays and frame.
