Since I saw the HB cyclone TCD. I thought it is possible to mod my sprint 2.
So I got bored one day and decided to flip my HPI sprint 2.
Unfortunately the steering mechanism need to be modified too.

So i decided to build my own motor mid mount to clear the steering mechanism.
The only problem stopping me to finish this project? I need to source a belt drive
for the front drive.

Here she is in unfinish state.


Taking measurements
