Just built running chassis so just about to fit. But just realised the kit pinion does not fit the motor shaft.

The HW motor has an 1/8th inch shaft,,,,, I used a Hot Racing 18 tooth pinion gear. They are a 0.5 mod gear.

Do anyone know if I need to run the fan with this or can I leave off? Seems rather high in height ESC plus fan.

I don't know for sure - but would guess that you'll be OK without it.
Check temps after a 5min run maybe? |
Anyone having issues blowing out shocks? Can we buy replacement shock seal kits for these?

It has a center diff, which is kind of awesome. Given the popularity of the mini 8 and the LC Racing 1/14 rigs, this has a decent shot.
Might come with cvds standard (can’t tell yet) so between those and the center diff it seems very competitive and well-priced. |

New motor mount

https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rct...98a6264789.jpg It is a sliding motor mount that can fit a 16t, 17t & 18t pinion. Reason for making is so that I can get the motor lower to the chassis and the motor is more secure. |
AWESOME WORK on the custom chassis!!! U got skills!!!
