Traxxas Slash Receiver Relocation by MSHax

Last crawled date: 4 years, 11 months ago

I had to move things around when I installed the Mamba Monster motor and ESC, and ran 6S for speed runs. Now that I've gotten the speed runs out of the way, I had to come up with a more conventional setup. Thanks to the giant ESC that Mamba provides, that meant relocating the receiver, the best alternative place is in the front. I made this mount to hold the ESC in front of the steering servo. It was a a little thin around the front screw holes because the chassis narrows, so the front has a slight overhang (see picture of overhang on chassis). If I decide to rebuild this I'll hug against the chassis and use a more durable Alloy 910 filament or something.
