HPI Savage X 4.6 Electric Conversion Motor Mount

thingiverse

I wanted to convert my nitro Savage X 4.6 to an electric, so I designed this motor mount on my own. It has worked perfectly so far, fitting right in without any modifications needed. I printed it in PLA and it's holding up great. To get the maximum strength out of it, print at 100% infill. For extra stability, I added a zip tie location to wrap around the back can of the motor. Use washers on the mount to chassis bolts to prevent them from pulling through the plastic. Here is a link to the motor that I used. I ordered the 2000KV version and it's fantastic for its price, offering plenty of power on 4s.
