Just got a new (08 model) Revo delivered - and wondered what the two screwholes are in the bottom, just in front of the mirage-drive!?

These are the undersides of molded-in inserts. The threads you see are used to position the part in the mold. There are normally white caps covering the holes. One helps support the loads of the MirageDrive at the front of the well. The forward one is the base of the mast / accessory mount fixture.

Thanks for the info, Miller. Mine was delivered like this. Should i take measures to cover them up - or is it not a problem to leave them as they are?

The caps are simply cosmetic.

Thanks again. I'll leave the holes as-is.

Better ask one question too many, than one too little :wink:
