It's hard to get hold of the custom mounts and I've been waiting for awhile now. Has anyone else mounted these a different way? Please share your pics.. Thanks |

Well I couldn't wait so I decided to make a temporary mount for my honcho... I used a book end that I had in the house... ..marked the holes.. The bookend had a felt pad so it made it easier to mark.. I used a spare MIP kit with 5mm and 6mm ends.... Here it is mounted..still need to get a servo before I can clean up the spaghetti wires.. |

Looks cool. How are your MIP shafts holding up with that much angle?

Is there enough room to cut the center of the plate out so the tranny will sit a little lower?

| I didn't get to run it much but when I did was using a 14T. I have the real mount now and still need to put a link for the servo shifter. I removed the VXL since it twitches on slow crawl and replaced it with the stock 12T titan.
