Anyone have any experience putting this motor in a tc vehicle? I'm debating on upgrading the 4092 I've got in my 8s Kronos, I think it'll fit without major modding but gonna be tight, she's fat.

That's one big heavy motor, it should work but. I've never tried on a TC ride

I'm not too concerned about weight, it's only 50g heavier than the 4092 I'm currently running, a dual fan setup weighs that and we think nothing of strapping those on, plus with a big esc and two 4s packs it's hard to keep weight down running 8s, I ordered the motor last night so we'll see how it fits, I'm just hoping it fits without changing anything, not a big deal just didn't want to change the driveshaft geometry if I didn't have too but raising them a few mil won't hurt anything

Well the big girl fits, tight but fits!

And you still have room for a fan.

Yeah I've got a clamp on dual 40mm setup ordered, as well as a mamba monster x 8s esc considering the max6 bit the dust

Here's my Powerhobby clamp-on fan setup in my Radix6. Fan is a Powerhobby 40mm Tornado fan, and the clamp is from Powerhobby too.
