now I'm confused ... hes trying to fit the engine plate to the frame right? the flm plate don't bolt up to the xl frame on mine ...

now i'm confused.
i though he was talking about the engine plate only fitting the xl not the x.
then you said use the flm plate, then you said it wont fit with out making another hole.
because it lined up on mine (xl tvps)
but then again i just got my flm plate a few months back, they might have a new version to fix that problem.

you got it right .. i rechecked my xl frame the flm plate does line up on my xl frames ..i tried lining it up on the x plates .. i thought the x and xl were same deminsions on the motor plate cros braces but there not ... so yes the flm plate does work on the xl tvps. no need to drill new holes .. i was confused ..lol

Not to put you out Maxim but here's a few links if he wants to buy the FLM.
http://cart.rcbros.com/product_info.php/motor-plate-p-137?manufacturers_id=10
And
http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail.php?prod=flm45700motorplate&cat=109
I tried to order directly from the FLM site, to only find out they are a wholesale dealer only. Good news my FLM extended low center gravity TVP's are on the way(not to stray away from his topic).

That's who I ordered mine from. Waiting game is now in affect. I'm used to things I order to take a while. Shipping to a military address takes longer some times, but I hope they get here soon!

I know how it feels but non the less it is way cheaper to use the military address than my Japan address and for you Rota Spain. I wait aprox 4 extra days for me and I am in Japan.

I used this on both my XL and FLM EXT LCG TVP plates. As a matter of fact I am selling the extra one I have.

yeah using our FPO's is a lot cheaper than sending it to our actual addresses. Proud owner of a new Spekrum Rx and Tx tonight only $63.00 for them. I love ebay!

+1 for ebay.
Just built a savage flux roller for $82.70. all i need now is a MM 2200kv motor & esc, packs and a charger. Ill end up saving about $250 going ground up instead of going to lhs and buying a flux.
