HW Max 8 install for MT410

[SP201]

I am currently attempting to install the HW Max 8 ESC on my MT410. I noticed it does not fit smoothly up against the steering servo which results in the mounting holes not aligning correctly with the mounting plate. I feel like I read a while back I would be encountering this issue. My questions are:

-is this normal?

-what are the solutions to properly mount the ESC?

-are their any video links of HW Max 8 installs on the MT410?

-any good pictures of the electronics being installed?

Thanks for the help!

If I remember correctly I had to cut the tabs off with a demel and smooth out the sides. After that no problems fitting.

That worked perfect thank you. What battery are you running? I want to run 4S, I noticed that it looks like I could connect 2 batteries. A little confused as to why there are two battery connections. Would I purchase 2, 4S batteries ?

Running a single 4s 5000m. You could run two batteries if you set it up that way. However use only 2 - 2 s. For 4s or two 3 s for 6 s. Probably don’t want to hook up 2 - 4 s. That would be 8 s and destroy your esc/ motor etc. enjoy the fun.
