Traxxas Revo Nitro to Electric Conversion Motor Mount

thingiverse

This is a brushless motor mount I designed specifically for my Traxxas Revo 2.5R electric conversion. It replaces the nitro engine directly in place of the original mounts, using the very same screws that held it in position. The photos clearly show this process in action. I'm currently running a 2300kv motor paired with a high-performance 120A ESC and a 16-tooth pinion on the motor, combined with the stock 38-tooth spur gear. This configuration has resulted in an excessive amount of torque, leading to wheelies on nearly every surface I've tested it on. To resolve this issue, I plan to install a new 36-tooth spur gear and monitor its effect on my truck's performance. This change should allow me to balance the torque output with top-end speed, resulting in better overall drivability. Although I haven't had a chance to test it yet, I believe this mount would also work seamlessly on the Revo 3.3 chassis. My current version of this mount has been in use for about a month without any issues. This updated design is an exact remake of the previous one, with improvements made to tidy up the mesh from excessive edits in Tinkercad.
