Default Skid plate/motor, planetary mount.

I decided to make my own out of aluminum I had lying around, this is it so far...

Thanks, Now I just have to make the little blocks of aluminum which will be where the screws go for attaching it to the frame. The reason I'm doing this is the captured nuts are spinning inside the plastic. With the aluminum it will be drilled and tapped, eliminating the need for nuts all together.

Thanks, that's what I was going for. The little openings that hold the nuts from spinning in the factory version wasn't holding the nuts anymore. Didn't want the hassle of ordering rc parts from the USA and getting them across the border either.
