RC12i rear motor mount (metal??)

Post by tiger1 »

Hi:

I noticed that the rc12i came with plastic motor mounts, then heat would build up, right?

Was there any metal options made for 12i??

Thanks

Litesink made a hop-up aluminum bulkhead for the 12e & 12i.
Associated had aluminum on the 12L

And just to clarify, the 12i and 12e were not compatible- it was two different part numbers

We mainly had closed endbell can motors back then, temps weren't too crazy 8)

Wow....never seen that one. The one I recall was shaped more like the 12i and had the wedge cut on the bottom where it flexes. I would swear the bolt patterns were quite different but the label doesn't lie

I stand corrected!

Those are hard to come by for sure! I've lost out on a few of those on the bay. Would be nice to have one for my runner.

That one sold unless it was a new listing I didn't see. I search just about every week for RC12 stuff and haven't seen one in a long while. I did score another Litesink for the 10LSS you sold me though. Project coming soon. :mrgreen:
