Motor mount is showing up today so I'm tearing all the nitro gear out and mounting my spare TS 411 4600.
I think I answered my own question about retaining the disk brakes, a lot of weight with all the stuff and a 2nd servo. Plus it looks like the motor will live where the brake servo would be. Too bad though, nice to have control over the front/rear bias.
Need the upper TI screw kit if nothing else because this has been sitting in the garage for so many years there are some rusty heads and that won't do.
EDIT:
Hour and a half later and one missing Coors light can... getting there.
Bizz, what battery tray are you using?
Flat has more of the lipo hanging off the side than I like.

Not sure, but a few places still have 5 parts like amain & nitrohouse. Probably some in Canada as well.
Brent said that he tried the disco light weight cvd's and they bent quickly so stock seems to be the way to go on that and look for weight savings elsewhere on the chassis.
Maybe someone else knows of one?
