Where are you planning on mounting the battery? Raising the tie rod up means I can't strap mine to the front axle like I was...

On a plate behind the servo. It will be dropped a bit like JeremyHs battery mount. Just enough to clear the drive shaft. My ESC and Rx will be shrinked together on the axle on a small CF plate. They will clear the links and tire barely, a 3s lipo won't.
I wanted to do one similar to HBJs but the BTA idea screwed that.

I should have a pic up tomorrow.

Got it running this evening! Put my Mamba 1C in instead of the Micro. I am thinking I may wanna try a red sensored outrunner one day and will have the appropriate speedo ready installed. Hacked up a Rowdy Racing berg mount for a battery mount. Fit and works good. I will be running an O-ring along with the velcro to keep the lipo put.

Just gotta get a servo guard and some more slw hubs for the rear, way narrow.

A few more pics...

Hated to hack up a nice piece but it turned out well enough to leave the RR exposed. It works fine for the 600 and 430 packs.

Had a bit of a redo tonight. I was not content with the electronics and servo set up. Put on a VP plate and removed the big arse Mamba 1C. Smashed a Mamba Micro and a BEC together on on side and the 3s lipo on the other. Tape is temporary also. Gotta get some shrink.

Anyways everything is on the front axle now. Looks and feels better to me...

Looking good. You've inspired me to get to work on my sporty. I've been busy rebuilding two trucks lately. Hope you can make it to nats.
