Recently got some parts 3D printed for my big rock. Company I used had a minimum order of £40 so I ended up printing a few extra spares of the same part.
I’m a big believer in wedging the gaps between motor and chassis so opted for a motor wedge.
Now I had a few spares that I thought would go to waste, would be pretty hard to break that piece IMO.
Had a brainwave to see if it fits any of my other rigs and I was surprised I could see some potential with my 6s. Kraton EXB, even though it’s got a different motor
This is my setup for my Kraton EXB
As you can see the motor wedge fits pretty good, albeit with a slight kink in the middle where it ever so slightly lifts off the chassis, but corner of motor wedge is firmly planted on the chassis meaning it’s still installed correctly and will stop motor moving on big sends.
Glued the wedge to the motor using some contact adhesive so it ain’t going anywhere soon, only slight concern is the glue may not hold up to motor temps but will keep an eye on it. Can always re-glue with temp resistant glue if need be
