Team Associated RC10-GT mid chassis 540 size motor mount

thingiverse

This is a mid-chassis motor mount designed for converting an old RC10-GT to accommodate a 540-sized brushed or brushless motor. The top features a standard 40MM fan opening, allowing you to either incorporate a fan for motor ventilation or install the ESC in its place if needed. Note that my initial prototype (the one pictured) had a critical oversight - it missed the transmission tie points. Rest assured, this revised version rectifies that issue. If any issues arise during printing, please don't hesitate to let me know. To achieve optimal results and minimize support material, print this design in the orientation depicted here. This configuration yields the best possible outcome with the least amount of required support. I successfully printed the mount using PETG (a high-temperature plastic) with a 1MM nozzle and .4mm layer heights, which resulted in a 2-hour print time at 100% infill. However, if you opt for a .4mm nozzle, be prepared to spend around 8 hours or more on the printing process.
