Help with tigerdrive install please

Ok, I ordered a tigerdrive, part number s680 because that is what it called for for an HPI .21. But it' does not fit. It will bolt up to the motor, but will not fit into the chassis. Shouid I have ordered the S702 instead?

If I could somehow index the s680 about 45* counter clockwise from stright up, I could get it to work. I thought that is how it would have came.

Only used one once on my 2.5 Revo, the same part number, I also had difficulty getting it to fit. It rubbed on the rear arm, so I had to remove a fair amount of material from the cover. I had the aluminium cover so I could do this and it still looked the part. I don't think I'd have another one, I like the cheaper inline ones made by HPI, Ofna etc.

Well thanks for the reply. I managed to figure it after searchin google for an hour or more. You have to mount it pointing to the right, just under the manifold. You need to drill a hole in the TVP plate and remove a lil plastic from the piece above the diff the larger screw mounts into. Wroks pretty good. I'm happy with it.

Now if I can just figure out how to get the darn thing tuned so I can run it longer than a half tank...... lol
