| 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 Close up of mid motor mount Left Side view Top view Front View **edit - l_aNcE |
