Clean looking mount, 1/8th inch shoud really get the job done.

Just a setup note that I will add.
When I installed mine on my WK Tuber, I didn't care for how far the linkage stuck out past the drag link. So I took the servo off and mounted it behind the plate, and then I spun the servo horn almost 180* to get it even more out of the way. I set my steering arm up to go to the side furthest from the servo. The servo has plenty of power to deal with the steeper angle and I am much happier with the approach angle.

I will have to get pics another time, I am out of town now, be back in a week.

you might have some problems with you steering setup, since you are using the servo saver on it, it would be wise to move your push rod that goes from nuckle to nuckle under the arms. alowing more space for your servo to arm link

Oh I see what you mean - I just realized that in this picture it looks lke the servo arm is actually hooked onto the link. In reality its not. I just stuck the linkage in there to stop the wheels from flopping around for the photo shoot and to see how the whole thinks looks. I'll do the two link standard as most others do.

Thanks for the concern,

Sean

thanks bro, i greatly appreciate it

kurt · 06-06-2007, 03:56 PM

thats not the actual cnc instructions tho.....

JasonInAugusta · 06-06-2007, 04:18 PM

Kurt, seeing you ask over and over for CNC instructions for these is getting old.

You've tried to get'm here, tried to get'm in Syco's thread in the Vendor's Market...

...getting old

tsaun987 · 06-06-2007, 04:31 PM

hey JIA i printed that version out that kurt says isnt the cnc version. will that work? thanks man!

JasonInAugusta · 06-06-2007, 04:36 PM

It'll work.

What Kurt means by "CNC instructions" is that he wants the code to put into a CNC mill.

tsaun987 · 06-06-2007, 04:38 PM

Ahaaa!!! Thanks for everyones help, i would be absolutely lost without the information everyone so graciously shares

Harley · 06-08-2007, 10:56 PM

I have gotten a few e-mails asking for the CNC instructions as well.

I don't recall who they were from but here is my response:
"Up to this point I have never handed out the actual drawing file, and I really don't plan to. I don't want to sound rude, I am not a rude person, but I would rather not distribute the drawing file."

I hope the template is still helpful to many. I have also gotten a few e-mails from a small handfull of people asking me if I am going to remove the file now that vendors are producing other options. I don't think that the vendors will see this a horribly bad thing. I hope that this will stay available for a long time and I have no intentions of it becoming unavailable.

Just trying to help out. If i had them, i can have alot cut out and mailed for the cost of shipping only. I'm not looking to make a profit. I just know the frustration when you need something and its not available.

Harley · 06-16-2007, 10:35 AM

By reading his post what I understand him to say is that he is making two versions: One out of Al and one out of CF. There would be no point in making a multi piece mount. I think his mounts are available now in the vendors section now, but he may still be in the testing phase.

Calderwood · 06-21-2007, 08:21 PM

is the clocked tranny mount availible in the correct scale?

Harley · 06-21-2007, 09:00 PM

There is nothing wrong with the scale of the motor mount. I have made one personally and it worked just fine.
