My little mods on the ZX5 FS

[shannow95]

Hi there,

I'm starting a new topic to show some pics of my new ZX5 FS .
I've changed some (very) little details on it already but more are to come later on . It's no big engineering but anyway I wanted to share .




I've setted her up like RogerM advised me too

The general arrangement :
note that I've use conventionnal car bullet conectors for fast switch between 6.5t and 10.5t motor , works fine doesn't heat at all (yet) . Also the battery holders are inverted it is deliberate (see a few pics below).


The nose after a few bodyshell assembly snaped and was a burden anyway so I cut it off and screw it !


I've setted the chassis on my CNC milling machine to give more clearance for the ESC :


Same with the batteries , they were too wide to fit touched it 1mm will a mill ...


The original pole were the correct height but they only gave 2 in the kit :/ so I've made my own one in brass to give a bit more weight to the lipos .


Just showing them doing their job properly : ( nice fit )


The rear poles have been offsetted to the outside because the clips are too close at this height to the radio plate .
So I inverted the left and right battery holder and drilled the chassis on the same offset but mirrored according to the holders.


More mods will come as thing break down probably lol or if I get fed up with some parts .
