When I upgraded my TRX-4 ESC to a Hobbywing 1080, I found several mounting plates, but none had an external lever switch like I had been using with the original Traxxas ESC.

I've combined Puredeath's excellent TRX switch(https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2486727) with a basic 1080 mount by silverbullet126 (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3668792) .
I personally prefer the longer rocker level by NetMagi (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2568104), so I have remixed both it and the original Puredeath one to fit the 1080 mount.

In addition to combining the parts, modified the tray to better fit trucks with the 2-speed servo installed, and added holes around the base for tie wraps.

The switch height is set assuming the button is mounted using the foam tape that comes with the ESC.

Notes:

I find that the levers fit best when printed with supports and oriented shown in the included slicer screen shot.

My main print is in PETG and the switch was printed in PLA, but any filaments should work.
