This is something that i would have needed for my Hyper ST Pro conversion.

I was thinking the same thing last night. BB - depending on what software program you are using, you might be able to paramaterize the motor mount portion (positioned sketch or something) to allow individuals to specify an angle to have the motor sit at..straight up like you have it would be zero degrees, rotated to the left would be a negative angle, to the right, a positive.

If your worried about COG- get one of mikes standard mounts. this is not made to be low COG- I have raced a buggy with this mount- the car is much more balanced- kind of counteracted the higher COG..

if you want your motor on the side- get an rcm mount- I guess you could clock it... Now you have me thinking- I need to look into it now

make sure to make a recess in the top in order to get a hex into the pinion

already have that. need to mill a portion in so that the shank of the pinion will slide in- I know Im having a tough time getting pinions to fit on my 2200(shortened shaft)


As for clocking the motor- your limited to about 30degrees each way- or i would need to make a custom top plate for 45 degree mounting.



My idea now is tho have the actually motor plate clockable- 10 degree increments or so.. but making a devoted 45 degree mount is more practical and would cut down on machining time and less waste material...

I know you've seen it, but it already has the bugs all worked out. Has the slot for pinion screw access, bottom plate has raised portion to fit up to 51t spurs. Dead sexy. A little beefier. I've got mine right here in front of me if you want any dimensions. I just sold it for $300

i got offers of 300 for mine.. gonna limit production to 30-40 units max so mike can still make money when he releases them- going to be limited edition :)

$300? That is just silly...
