| Motor Adapter Plates, New and improved!
I just received my updated adapter plates. They adapt a speed 300 or 400 motor to a standard 540 bolt pattern (16 or 19mm to 25mm bolt circle). This comes in handy for mounting small outrunners or 380 motors to a standard gearbox. I flipped the design from the last run of plates, as the mounting screws interfered with the motor wires on almost all outrunners. Also, every small motor (except mini's) on my website comes with these standard. Last edited by JohnRobHolmes; 08-01-2009 at 04:34 PM. |

Is one of these, or any sort of adaptor plate needed to bolt a Scorpion 3014 up to a standard tranny?

No. Only the 22xx series motors need them. The 28xx and 30xxmm diameter stator motors generally have 25mm bolt spacing- just like a stampede tranny. The Revolver Black is a 2816mm motor, it bolts right up. | |

The logo is just there for pretty looks. There really wasnt any way to make them visable without making it 1/4" thick |

Hey JRH, will my crawlmaster bolt right up to my ax-10 tranny or do I need one of these?

The crawlmaster will bolt right up, just make sure the motor doesn't rub the tranny case. You dont need an adapter plate.

With the pinion gear included in the ax-10 kit (14t), I cannot move the motor far enough away from the tranny to prevent it from rubbing without moving it to far away from the spur. Do I just need to get a new pinion? If so, what do you recommend?

I would suggest a larger spur so that you will have the most gearing options. I would suggest getting as large of a spur as you can fit without it hitting the chassis.

ok, so how do i know if one will be bigger than the other? Is it like the more teeth the smaller??? I know, this is pretty dumb, but I really dont know. What do you recommend I go with as far as spur and pinion, and what brands?

since I haven't gotten my hands on the ax10, I dont know what spur will fit. You want more teeth to your spur, it will push the motor away from the tranny case.
