SCX10 ESC Mount for AX-2 Transmission

thingiverse

A bolt-on solution for safely mounting your Electronic Speed Controller (ESC) to your SCX10 using RC4WD's AX-2 transmission is now available. Designed specifically for the "Honcho" body style, this product has a sleek appearance with four 3mm fasteners securing the lid. It seamlessly integrates with other models offered on my profile, compatible with both the AE-5 ESC and additional designs. Included in the files are two spacer washers to accommodate longer bolts on the servo mount. For an added layer of protection against water damage, apply a thin layer of RTV or silicone to the lid surface. Weather testing has shown it to be resistant from -30c to 20c with PLA material and no seals, even in snowy conditions. Assembly is straightforward with PLA, although ABS may provide better results. This product should prove durable despite its use of PLA, provided fasteners are not over-tightened. Heat M3 fasteners before assembly for optimal thread creation, and secure the mount to the transmission using Velcro on the underside for added stability. The lower fastener also functions as a servo brace for the shifting micro servo, an excellent feature. Additional wiring space is available for extended JST plug body lighting applications, as demonstrated in one of my builds. Enjoy this model if you decide to use it! I highly appreciate RC4WD's AX-2 transmission and created this ESC solution out of necessity for my truck, which works perfectly with it.
