E-10 front end weight

[celticsun33]

After running my new everest 10, I found the same issue everyone else had. The front end is too light.
I didn't want to tax the drivetrain so I figured out a different location. I machined a new servo mount out of brass. This put the weight right over the axle and by using the brass I added just shy of 1/4 pound. It also created a nice place to mount a guard protecting the servo.
If I could post pictures I'd show y'all

Here's a picture of that servo mount I made. I also made a brass skin plate.

just woundering what your trying to protect the servo from its gona burn up before it breakes anything

the mechanics of the servo will outlast the electronics by far so the only thing the servo needs protection from is bad driving lol


thats a vary nice servo mount that should work great buy a star and sell those bad mamerjammers



the skid plate although realy nice wont help performance it dosent help with the poor suspention geomitry at all you should in my opinion make it so the skid sits lower or modify the chassie and move the lower links closer to.the center of the skid plate there are some guys making amazing skid plated for these things just not out of brass you should look and see what there doing and incorparate some of there ideas in to a new skid
