    Need help finding a motor mount

    I need a motor mount for a single 1717 finned castle motor in my cheetah. I havent had any luck finding something that will support it in the rear. I could machine a custom one but it takes too long on a manual machine and would be more cost effective to buy one. Help! :)

    Interesting. I've been doing some advance planning fro my Hydro build and have been looking for a similar mount......without success. The last few days I've been emailing with Dave at Hampton RC about making one for me for a TP4050 motor.

    I'll be interested what pops up here, but you might want to ping Dave.

        Nice work on the mount Randy. If you could incorporate water cooling up front to keep the front bearing cool, that would be the cat's meow......

          I could make the front plate out if thicker angle stock to water cool not a hard thing to do. It would not be the $19.00 original price though that would add about $20. to the front plate.

              Thanks for that man. Im gonna get one of these if I can. I hear you cant buy anything from fightercat right now because of shipping issues or something. I like this mount alot tho.

                    Thanks a bunch. I ended up finding one. I bought one from a member here and saved a few bucks...which is always a good thing! Lol! Thanks again
