Called Schumacher again today, 3rd week in may is looking favorite.:cry:

Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away the first drivers to get the XLS chassis for the CAT had to use a bodyshell created by cutting 2 SWB shells up and sticking them together with servotape...

:(:(

We are working hard as a team to develop the car quickly to make sure we can get it out to the general public. I know that myself and the other A team guys are testing every week to make changes/improvements to the car ready for general release.

Im sure you all want the car to be right straight away.

Should be gud then:thumbsup:

Damm right if I'm gonna wait make it worth my while:p

Look forward to it.

Any more updates on the SX3, I see Custom Blitz has done some more team shells etc.

Look forward to the report from RHR..

Just wondering what height lipos fit?

any height will fit I believe, as they aren't having to fit under the pulley at the front like the SX2

Theoretically any height could fit, but you'll have problems fitting things under the shell. The car is designed to take the maximum height specified by the BRCA/EFRA Regulations

How did the team get on at RHR with the car?

I know somebody who got there's today mikey !!!;)

Were they Joe public or a team driver?:confused:

Team drivers are getting some this week. Joe public end of the month...

Should have mine here in the states on Monday.:)

Parts are on schumacher site

Team fella as Si has written.

Just had a look through the parts listing & added up what I think you'd need to convert a Cat SX2 to SX3 (with a S1 chassis/top deck)....

£246:woot:

CF would be closer to £300:lol:

If the old rear trans housings could be modified to fit then that would be £210 for S1...

One things for sure, its not worth doing either way

On the SXII how well did the pastic suspension holders and steering arms hold up compared to the original alloy versions on the SX ? And people with the SXII did you convert anyway for more durability ?

Hi Stegger
I've started last season with SX2 with stock plastic holders. Ran it in the front with your brace - that held just fine. I broke in about 3-4 races 2 rear blocks but it was bad landing really. If you want to be on safe side - alloy holders are way to go. You can still run plastic ones but have pack or two of spare and run your brace in front and it's doable just fine :D

Cheers Pav :thumbsup: Haven't been on the schui thread for a while. How are the braces holding out ?

SX3 arrived today,looks fantastic!

Body shell ordered and off to the painter shortly :)

I still have your braces and made one 3mm one to have even wider track width for indoor race in austria so I used your 2mm as template :D

Copyright issue, wheres my commission :lol::lol::lol:

Uhmm did I say that I used your brace as template? I didn't mean it really :lol:
Nah, it was good one.

well just finished Matty's cat, it has to be one of the easiest builds Ive ever done, everything goes together perfect, no build or fit issues at all well done team Schumacher racing the cars awesome, now to hit every track available practice practice practice,here's a couple of pics

That is one good looking car.

my sx3 built only electronix to be placed .
looks good and cant agree more esy build.

They were ok apart from the steering radius arm, but this has now been addressed, and seriously beefed up.
