New 1/5 Kershaw Motor

[TexasSP]

I did not think I could be any less impressed but these new pics did it. It looks like pure crap. So the dual motor idea did not work so instead of redesigning the mount he just hacks that together. And best yet the 5B bodies don't work on it?! What's the point?

Total garbage, I can't wait to see Mike's conversion put that pile to shame.

That's pretty much why I posted it. Its hard to tell what you're getting into from the pics I've seen of the kit so far. From what I can tell, the spur(?) gear on the left side will hit the body, don't know about the right side. I didn't get into it much, was more concerned with trying to point this guy in a better direction as far as electronics are concerned. I'm still wondering how anyone could sell this kit powered by 6s on a MMM though, especially without mechanical brakes. And if it isn't clear on the pics, the mount doesn't tie into the rear of the car at all on the left side, only the right.

This was the first thing I noticed when I saw at the pics...I mean, his mount goes right to that hole in the chassis, and there is absolutely no excuse for not simply making a tapped hole in the mount for a screw to tie the chassis to the mount. It's right friggin there!!! Why in the hell didn't he make a simple mount for the hole in the chassis that's right there! Just doesn't make sense.
