I know that Lee runs a 5300 LiPo and a plate underneath so there's a chance that the std grub screw isnt long enough. My suggestion would be to put a long allen bolt into the chassis then cut the end off after you have worked out what length you need to have showing to provide a good fixing.

Screwing the bolt in and out of the plastic each time is a pain and prefer the way the system works on the Associated 2WD cars...
