Hi all...
The servo mounts are nearly finished and I am taking pre-orders for the first batch. Please PM me if you are interested. Paypal only please.
They are going for $20 each Shipped in the continental US and I am offering a discount for 2 or more ordered at the same time so if your TC6 buddies want in, you can make a group buy.
P.S. The blocks will be Blue Unless you want them Pre-anodized. This mount uses the existing weight mounting holes found on all TC6 based chassis. therefore it should fit all of the commonly used chassis that have the same hole locations.

Hi, I want to know how you hold a shorty lipo on your standard TC6.1 Chasis.
Thanks
Thanks

1. to drill new holes for the standard battery mounts or
2. to make new battery tape taps from cfk which are redesigned for a shorter battery.
In my 4WS I made new holes for the battery mount and milled a new L-formed cfk part. The servo on the other side prevents the battery from leaving the chassis

I place shorty pack on the back, where do you recommend to place it?

You maybe already have a favourite battery placement for your TC6. Do you also place other components on the battery side as the shorty is around 100gr. lighter? Just try to get as close to your actual weightbalance as possible (for both sides).

Sounds good

Need some help here, I'm new to the TC6 world, I picked up a 6.1FT roller, and the two M2.5 Button heads the hold the spur gear in place are questionable as to the socket that holds your wrench. The manual calls for M2.5x8 P/N 31521, my LHS says that is a dicontinued number, does anyone have an updated number?
Thanks

I have them on hand in Stainless steel. If you order one of my servo mounts, I'll be happy to throw some in with the order otherwise it wouldn't be worth the shipping for just a few little screws.

Forget about those button head screws. you need cap head screws as they use a larger allen key and are far more reliable.

Now the servo mount...
It allows the steering servo to be mounted transversely thus giving you more room for your electronics and is mounted only at the centerline of the chassis. Its in essence, floating on the chassis plate. The byproduct of this is that the servo no longer has a biasing influence on the chassis flex at the front of the car. There is the same thought process now with regards to the battery as well but the battery is not actually ridgidly attached to the chassis so it may not have as much influence on chassis flex. I have thin foam strips that I like to use under my battery. You can see them in my posted pics installed on my car. I have yet to verify that they help but they certainly don't hurt. Besides they keep my battery from grinding the track dust into my carbon fiber chassis.
I hope this explains things for you.
Oh yeah, there is a thread for discussing the whole "floating servo" theory in the rctech forum. Take a look.
