Default AR45 straight axle SOA?

Thinking about switching my OG SCX10 to AR45s, mainly because I picked a set up in the Horizon spring madness sale.
Wondering if anyone other than 1Tenth via Shapeways makes a servo mount?
Not sure about putting 95kg of SHV800 through a 3d printed part will go very well and Shapeways is also very expensive to get to the UK.
Can't find another but hoping someone knows of one.

I’m interested as well, I could think of a couple uses for one.

I just hate CMS, I'm not really a 'scale' guy anymore, I choose performance over scale, so CMS is just not for me, I wish companies would give you the option inside the box to make every truck SOA, especially kit versions.
Would make life much easier and make newer trucks much more attractive.

Curious to see how it holds up and how heavy it is. Would prefer something machined, but at the same time, the price isn’t bad.

I met them at Texas Crawlfest a couple weekends ago - they had a booth and took part in some events.

Had received a set of HD Enduro axle trusses in 3D-printed metal from their Shapeways site a while back, but have not mounted them as the kit Gatekeeper/Ecto isn't built yet.

Seemed like real nice guys!

Here's another option from Punk's Custom 3D in case anyone else is looking for a SOA mount for AR45 Straight Axles. I have this one on my Capra on AR45-S.

https://punkscustom3d.com/store/p/ar...-on-axle-mount

I also have one that fellow RCC member JSterrett designed. I may have gotten the last one he made though, and I don't know if he has made any more of them, or intends to make any more. But his design is also really cool. I will likely put it to use soon as well.
