Brendan posted:The hand rails prevent flipping the shell. The shells are virtually identical. The holes are all the same. The GP20 I have has larger screws but they clear the holes on the new frame just fine. The holes on the frame for the shell match up. The GP20 frame has a hump where the motor mounts. The new frame is flat. The power truck will mount in the rear. The electronics can be flipped but the mounting is not symmetrical. The old frame is in the first picture.
Thanks for the pictures, Brendan.
I kinda thought there would be a good chance the motor could be mounted in the rear, but I no longer have the GP7 "review sample" in my possession to dissect.
Being able to move the motor and mount the "GP20" body on the new frame should open up some new possibilities for FlyerChief. (As long as us rivet counters stay away...) A new bracket for the electronics shouldn't be difficult to produce.
