Title: VMG/Leo-X ? Post by: DaCracka69 on September 21, 2010, 12:53:12 PM Found the site after looking up some stuff for my VMG's and stumbled across this. Awesome stuff you've guys have done. I wish I could make a trip from Indiana to race. :flex: I'm looking for the axle mounted servo parts but can't find what site has the necessary parts to order. Can anyone help me out on where to guy said parts? Thanks.

Swami R/C (http://www.swami-rc.com/VMG-01.htm) However, I don't think they are in production anymore. You will have to fabricate a mount. I used some aluminum angle from Home Depot. All you need is a flat plate to mount a servo to. I used servo tape and some zip ties to secure the servo. Here is the only pic I have of mine, before I sold it: (http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/1513/vmg002.th.jpg) (http://img121.imageshack.us/i/vmg002.jpg/) Title: Re: VMG/Leo-X ?
