Your CF slipper pads look really nice. Your work is always awesome. I tried a CF slipper in the past on my E-Revo and it ran for a while but eventually failed due to heat delaminating the CF layers. Heat breaks down the epoxy. The solution for me was to make aluminum slipper pads. Not too long after, Traxxas introduced aluminum slipper pads for their new brushless E-Maxx. I am still running the same slipper pad I made more than a year ago. It seems to be indestructible and lasts for a very long time. My thinking was: If aluminum is good enough for clutch shoes on nitro cars, then it will be good enough for slipper pads on brushless systems.
Just another option if the CF fails. I hope it doesn't


No brain, no headaches.
