Yes, I know what you mean. I was in contact with Tekno rc and they have two options, one 170mm and one 166mm. It should be possible to mod the 166mm to fit. But then I need a shorter front bone.

Finally, if I can't get the tekno one to fit I will just cut and weld the originals...

Currently I'm just waiting for parts. I had to order some stuff, because I first tried to fabricate my own motor mount outta aluminium, and well, it works but it looks so damn ugly. The mill I have is china made and in fact almost only good for drilling...

So for motor mount I ordered a Ofna Ultra lx2e motor mount + CD mount.
Think I will ned some 19mm bearing for my hpi CD to make it fit.

I'm also waiting for some standard servos. But later I will probably buy a strong single servo.
