T-rex nitro Rev-lock Sensor mount

[Disc]

Guys,

The 600N mount for the revlok is well.. akward is the polite word

But I think I have it sused....

I took a Rev-lock 30 size mount cut it down...





and in the helicopter frame.



I don't think it will conflict with anything esle well secured by 2 self tapping screws and used just a drop of super glue to make sure they don't come loose.

Thats different but it looks fine to me,,

Keep us informed if it gives you problems

[3dbasher]

or you could of done this http://www.real-kbase.co.uk/trex600_trick.html lmao you'll probably struggle getting the tail servo in with the mount there

Prefer mine

I think the tail servo will fit fine...

i sort of did the same as the one on real raptors but modified slightly to make it easier to remove and adjust... coz i've got a feeling its gonna be an ar£$

looks like theres room for the tail servo..in the piccys.

Looks ok Disc, how rigid do you think that air duct is?
Only worry I would have is it might not have enough rigidity & shake the sensor till it malfunctions. As with all mods you wont find out till you have been flying it for a few times. Hope it works tho you might be on to a winner there.

It will be a pain when you need to remove the engine as you need to disconnect the sensor lead form the governor and feed it out with the engine.

I hope it works OK though

Beware of the flying magnets on the standard fan, I ordered one of those G-force fan units.

Yes glued it and a bit of glue over it.

It ain't commin out

Yup he is.. He could milk a cow of it

You may have a problem sliding the fan shroud and engine out with that stuck on top though,,you would need to remove baseplate and skids first because with the skids in situ its a bugger as it stands without that sticking out from the top...

Okay I had to put a washer under the mount to give better clearence. It seems to be found and the servo fits as well.

Also done some work on the T-rex

It should just come out with the fan case as long as I remeber to discount it from the rev-lock
