Axial Capra skid plate for 3 gear transmission

thingiverse

I designed this skid plate to swap all the parts from my Redcat e-10 buggy into an Axial Capra cage. The "Redcap" parts are drawn with the Redcat transmission pattern. For an Axial style trans, use the SCX10 labeled part. The upper link mounts (side templates) included are intended to be a template that you should transfer to aluminum, or other material of choice. I do not expect those parts would hold up if you attempt to use the printed side templates as the actual link mount. For the parts I included in the photos, I used .090" 6061 aluminum and it has held up with no issues. The "plus5" side template was designed to give me some extra room so I can fit the new Hobbywing Fusion Pro brushless motor in the car. This is not needed if running a standard 540 sized motor. I'm running a Castle slate 1406 in the car at the time I posted this. The lower link mounts will require the stock capra sized grub screws (m3x30mm).
