nel33 870 Posted September 24, 2021 Small update, the scarfed threads were drilled out and I secured the top with machined threads 3x14mm. Self tappers on the bottom and the rear gear box is solid. Need to secure the electronics and let it rip now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nel33 870 Posted September 24, 2021 the manta is done sans stickers for the time being. had to find best arrangement for the motor wiring and general wire retention method. settled on using resistor mount and scrap lexan piece. had to swap the button and RX as the wires got in the way of the body shell too much. the wing looks a bit deformed around the 2 screws but the shoe goo reinforcement makes it a non issue. the aerial is also tucked into the resistor bridge and rests on the wing mount. had to cut down the tube 3 times so no hot spots/bends become an issue. its not the full family picture here but the current off road RCs are present.
