Servo mount

Post by DMAT »

This has just been bugging me lately, With the nose plate mounted, the servo mounts are at 2 different heights, I can mount the servo w/o issue like this but it sorta bugs me that they are uneven.

Do yall ever do anything to counter that?

Or, as on the t2, placed a spacer under the rearmost one to raise it up to be level.

This is what I'm doing, just adding a washer under it.

Use the too-small spacers that they provided for the rear shocks.. I think that's what the t2 used actually ;)

If it's a car I want to lighten up for racing, the nose plate will be cut, otherwise, I just slice a thickness off the bottom of the front mount:

Which I think is easier an cleaner than spacers.

The Classic manual calls for two #4 aluminum washers, seems to work fine.
