This aluminium motor plate is an aftermarket RC-scale accessory produced for TAMIYA MF01X platforms by GPM, intended to replace the stock motor mounting surface with a stiffer aluminium alternative.
Compatibility and role: the plate is made for use on MF01X chassis layouts and functions as a direct motor mounting point. In a tuning context it provides increased rigidity compared with typical plastic plates, helping maintain consistent motor alignment and supporting stable gear meshing during spirited on-road running.
Installation notes: the part installs in the motor bay area of the MF01X chassis and uses the vehicle's existing motor mounting workflow. Typical installation involves removing the original plate, fitting the aluminium plate to the same mounting points, and securing the motor with the original hardware. No additional tools or unique hardware are required beyond standard hobby tools for chassis work.
Tuning considerations: use this plate when you need firmer motor positioning for higher-torque motors or to reduce flex under braking and acceleration. The aluminium construction also assists passive heat dispersion from the motor area compared with plastic mounting plates.
