MR-02 Precision Motor Mount with SSG Graphite Plate - KZ-06/BU/SG by 3Racing  [KZ-06/BU/SG]

Precision MR-02 motor mounting solution

This aluminium motor mount coupled with an SSG graphite plate is a purpose-built tuning component for Mini-Z MR-02 RM patterns. The design focuses on a low-profile mounting stack and a rigid motor seat to reduce deflection under load while preserving minimal mass for competitive indoor running.

Engineering notes: the aluminium base provides a stable platform for repeatable motor positioning and the SSG graphite plate offers a lightweight bearing surface that keeps pinion engagement consistent. The mount references MR-015 dimensions to ensure correct alignment with common MR-02 drivetrain layouts.

Assembly and setup: replace the OEM motor mount and transfer reusable fasteners and bearings, aligning the graphite plate to match existing motor clearance and pinion engagement. After installation, validate gear mesh using a strip test or manual rotation, and torque fasteners to the recommended feel for hex screws—avoid excessive torque at graphite contact points.

Tuning guidance: use the mount to systematically alter motor setback, test pinion sizes, and tune chassis flex responses. Inspect mounting interfaces for wear and maintain fastener security after initial running; this helps retain reliable gear mesh and predictable handling under competitive conditions.
