I'm personally not a fan of relying on 2 sided tape or shoe goo and also don't like the fact it's "solid" on the chassis so for my e buggy and SCTE I make a small 150mmx40mm CF plate, drill and counter the chassis and mount on O-rings. Capped off with Velcro and zip ties to ensure the esc has some wiggle and Can't come dislodged.

I had to Open up the vent for the esc to clear the height, Not very much at all to be honest. As far as the "B" plate is concerned, Its a Tight fit but Will go Without modifying.
ill snap a pic of the body later to show how much i had to clear.

What seems to be the gearing most are running? My setup is a Tekin gen 2 1900kv. Med-large tracks. any help would be great thanks. Im asking because for example Drake standard is 16/45 and Maifield seems to be running like 13/45?

Hi Integra,
Thank you for your answer.
My personnal way to fix esc consist in some Velcro, but not Velcro tape.
I glue classic Velcro with cyanocrylate, but I don't want to glue directly on the esc. So I have to place a CF plate on the chassis plate, and an other CF plate under the esc.
Not so easy with the original body, but it's done.
Today, I'm looking at the front arms, with their bad aligned holes !
Bye !

The difference here is that Maifield runs the Orion equipment which is different than the Tekin stuff. They like a different gear.

I dont have enough fingers to count How many time's ive seen a Floppy Esc in the pits or coming off the track. Ill stick to my Mod and Never have to think about it. Plus if I need to Clean my chassis i can Unbolt Everything and take it to the sink if need be.
