Slash 4x4 esc mount

[sugaluva]

looking for some instructions on how to make a carbon fiber, sheetl metal or something along thise lines of material so i will be able to make a place where i will be able to mount a esc other than a velineon or MMM. Thanks in advance!

I would use lexan or aluminum. Light weight and sturdy. If I used lexan, I would use tire glue and mount esc to it once I got it cut out.

I used the VXL as a template to cut a mount out of lexan. Then a body reamer to make screw holes. double sided tape to mount the MMPro. done.

i did the same thing but i made it out of abs plastic

Where do you guys get the lexan or ABS plastic?

[pedecrawler]

Abs is stuff they make bugshields and rainguards from. U can pickup lexan from the bay for a reasonable price

took the footprint of the VXL and made from a piece of carbon

i wouldnt use ca glue on an esc, i read somewhere that the glue and its fumes will hurt it

stick with Shoegoo or 3M VHB tape

someday you may wish to debond the items

superglue is also very brittle and don't survive sudden hard shocks
