Home made throttle servo mount

[BIG DADDY 808]

hey bro's,made a throttle servo mount for my sons build,due to still being unemployed, its has to be a low budget build and had to use what i had laying around it's gonna be mid- tanked, so i needed to move the throttle/brake servo to the rear next to the mill.
here goes:

Started by making a cardboard template and a piece of aluminum plate.

and after some cutting,filing and bending :axed: and drilling this is what i came up with.

And its gonna be mounted something like this..And no,not with blue masking tape. lol,gonna drill a couple of small holes with small nuts and bolts and with a lot of clearance for the mill and linkage.

Nice work! Came out really good!

I guess I'm a cheater, I started with a piece of angle on my 25

Are you going to use nuts and bolts to mount the servo to the plate as well?
I just cut out the old servo mounting tabs and used the same screws on the bottom.
