I’m gathering parts for a dual 6374 build, and I was wondering what the forum’s general impression of these Turnigy Motor Mounts are. I’ll be using either a Caliber 2 or Torqueboard 218mm truck for the motors, the square clamps are a plus. The look decent enough, but they’re so inexpensive my fear is that it’s too good to be true.
I filed mine down to make it sit flush with Caliber 2 trucks. They seem sturdy, and haven’t come loose after 100km. Downsides are the non-adjustable angle and the thickness of the mount, which requires you to have a longer motor shaft if you want to attach a wide (15mm) pulley. I have a regular SK3 and a 15mm pulley, the pulley is 2-3mm too wide and hangs over.
+1 for filing. Installed their mount last spring, still riding with no thread lock, but I used grover rings to tighten the motor and it holds up like a charm.
The hobbyking mount worked fine for me on a single motor setup.
Only one issue, I tightened the 2 bolts to hard to clamp it on the truck, so the thread was not good anymore.
I just took this (don’t know the name in english):
And tapped the hole fully through and used a longer bolt, now it’s just much stronger.
