So, I got bored a couple weeks ago and thought to myslef "I should try making a brushless xmod!". Since there has been other creations I've seen around I decided to fabricate my own version...I think the overall design is a good one. Besides the use of an almost full GPM gen 1 xmod package I designed my own lower and upper chassis plates to mount the various componentry for the brushless esc/Rx/li-po's. I used an e-Flite 2 cell pack for the power supply and an RC18 motor mount for the Mamba mounting.
In the grand scheme of things, I just created this project to see if it could be done...during various tests I could not keep the parts together or keep the wheels on the axles. It didn't matter what loctite or how many new locknuts I used, the power of the Mamba was too much for it even at 50% throttle.
I hope you enjoy the pics...Thanks for looking.
