Just clearance the link mount so the motor clears or you could use a trans spacer dmg makes. DmG transmission spacers |

I'm running a 550 brushless motor and I just started removing small amounts of the link mount until it just fit. It's showing no signs of breaking and I am far from easy on my Wraith. |

I have the transmission spacer from DMG on my wraith. Im running 550 can sensored brushless and it clears the link mount.

I ordered a Pro4 HD for my U4 build. I think the transmission spacers is a good alternative. Messaged Jerry. Glad this thread popped up.  |

I had to take a notch out of my mount for my 550 motor - i removed about 4mm measured horizontally, so plenty of meat left in the mount.

Just make a spacer that goes under the transmission. Only has to be few mm, depending on how low it sits.
