Default Larger Servo Mount

First of all, I did see the rule about feeler threads, but I wasn't sure what you guys considered a "vendor". I'm just cutting these in my garage on a homemade CNC machine, so let me know if that still deems this against the rules.

I have made these servo mounts from CF, initially I just did one piece for my brother. He is using the Spektrum S6010 which was a bit larger than the stock servo. I know nothing about crawlers so I was hoping to find some help here.

Is it worth it moving up to a servo of this size, and is it common?
Are their other products out there like this? I didn't find anything, but I really have no clue where to look

If all is good with the rules, I no longer have access to the crawler to check the fit, but still have the CAD files... so I cut three of these out today that I would like to give away to three respected members who could let me know if they are a helpful or just junk.

The CF is 1/8" thick, and utilizes the stock servo mounts, but the servo will need to be modified a bit to fit the mounts. I just used a dremel and reamed the holes on the "ears" of the servo a bit closer together. The holes that are used to mount the CF to the axle are countersunk, but I do not know if the sink is deep/wide enough. Also, I could not remember if the screws that mount the servo mounts required a countersink or not, so they were left alone.

I cut one of them too close to the edge and the piece moved on the final cut, but I see no reason it would affect function.


And here one is mounted on a crawler.

I've still got these if anyone is interested.

I'm assuming that since this isn't locked that it is not against the rules, correct?

Thanks, Taylor.

This will pretty much center the servo correct?

To become a vendor, here are the rules:

Everything else for sale should be posted in the "For Sale" section...
