Howler 05-08-2011 09:05 PM

Cool, i should be able to make small adjustments by warming it with the heatgun attachment on my soldering iron if it needs it.

looking forward to seeing it,MK1 in progress :thumbsup:

Cr3Ad 05-08-2011 09:47 PM

from the mold its gonna be the shape of the chassis with straight sides up to clear internals but once i know the shape fits well and minimal water ill chop it down in areas where there are no obstructions

Ian_lawton 05-08-2011 09:54 PM

well the car came today and its all built up just need to either order the motor and esc i posted before or pick one up from model sport tomorrow??? hmmm

Howler 05-08-2011 09:57 PM

Go buy one, then you can race on Sunday :)

Er... and sorry for hijacking your thread.

Ian_lawton 05-08-2011 11:03 PM

dunno what they have at modelsport thats cheap and good though

Si Coe 06-08-2011 01:01 AM

From Modelsport?

Well this is very cheap and surprisingly capable in a 2wd car. You'll want to upgrade eventually but it should do you well for some time.

However, sensored systems are better so this which is a little more is worth considering.

Upwards of that you are really into separate esc and motors - in which case this is a good cheap esc, and a cheap sensored motor to match in 7.5t, 9.5t or 10.5t. The motors aren't the best, but they work fine - the esc is as good as you'll ever need for a 2wd.

Ian_lawton 06-08-2011 11:03 AM

Well ive just found out that im getting alot of money back from the tax man :D so thats made me happy,

Oh well in that case the best Modelsport offers (in VFM stakes) would be this esc and either this motor or this one.

Thats only a little more than the one I linked before, but its top of the line gear.
