Dented rear motor gaurd

Post by soniccj5 »

Today I dented my rear motor guard.

Going to try and make some type of bumper to protect my motor.

Does anyone have a suggestion on what type of material to use, or if there is already something that would work.

Thanks,

ED

Kydex works well- but I assume that it was an ass over tea kettle roll? if so that's a common dent and pretty easy to work out.

I shorted a triple at my local track on one practice day and nailed it in the same spot during the cartwheel :lol:

There is a double, that I always try to triple. I don't always make it. Especially after running a LiPo then going to a Nimh I lost a bit of punch.
