I reread your question. The zip tie doesn't go through the chassis. It goes through the printed mount. And was already there when it arrived. There were no instructions. So I figured it was meant to keep it in place in case the motor did move, it wouldn't fall out. I don't know. If I did it incorrectly let me know.

Had a busy weekend. Squeezed a little work time in last night. Decided to add this wheelie bar and got a proper wing on it.
Didn't have a roll cage. Dug through the parts box and found everything needed.
The Spektrum radio/recevier that came with it had the range of about 100 feet. My suspicions were correct. The antenna wire was severed at the box. (I've actually fixed it. It's now in the Grom.) But, it gave me an excuse to try out the Dumbo radio I bought some time ago.
Got the antenna wire in place and the receiver taped down. The little foam seal is missing and the cover had 2 of the screws pulled right through. The seal was mangled. Parts box to the rescue. Found a nice cover but no seal. Stopped at the LHS today and they had a seal kit. Couple of those foam seals and a lid seal. Perfect.
Really needed to get to bed. But, I'm getting closer. Should be able to hook power to this. Center the steering servo and calibrate. Then I can put the front mud guards back on. Waiting on the back ones. Still looking into motor fan and mount. It wasn't running hot when I tested it, but rather be safe than sorry.
Sorry if this is boring to some of you or taking longer than it should. It's a lot of money for me. And, I'd like it to last more than 5 minutes. Just trying to fix known problems and do it right.
