There are a lot of hole in the center line of the chassis and I'm pretty sure I will need to add stands between the upper and the lower deck to mitigate that. In the front, please note that the holes are not aligned with the original servo support. It seems that we can use another servo support instead (original still working as it is not fixed to chassis itself)...
Love the feeling but there is a marge of improvement... Not even talking about electronics installation!
Yeah, just looking at all these conversion kits in general, placement of the electronics was my first question; you’re moving the motor significantly forward, and TBH, it seems to me that the chassis space behind the motor would be useless. I don’t know that you could effectively place the ESC back there; as it is, it’s enough of a challenge with how narrow chassis’ today are - but if you have a conversion kit, you’d be the better judge.
