Dnano set up board

When Kyosho made this board for the Dnano, they made these holes in it that looked like they were intended for a car stand to keep the wheel's off the ground while running it. But no such part's were included, so, I made my own. Here you can see underneath the board where it look's like they ment to have something here. So, I found a pair of screw's that fit this hole and screwed theme in place.

The screws alone aren't enough to balance the car, so, a platform needed to be made.

Here is a peice of plastic from an old part's bin that will be used for the platform. Line up the holes, and drill.

Holes drilled.

Next, cut the platform out of the peice of plastic.
Here is the platform I made.

Then, to finish it off and make it pretty, I used heat shrink tubing to cover the screws,


Finally, to finish it off and to give the platform some grip, I took a peice of very fine sandpaper, and glued it ontop.
Here's the finished product.

It's a shame Kyosho didn't provide this already, but it was fun to make my own.
