Vega Elite B4.1 Gen2 questions
 
I've just started on my B4.1 gen 2 Vega conversion and it looks pretty awesome. Some questions though.

1) Anyone have a good setup for dirt? I know most will be running this on astro but if anyone has a dirt setup do share.

2) Does the kit come with any wingmounts and/or spacers to position the batteries? Didn't have these in my box so I was just curious. :)

3) Anyone have some pictures of the cutlines to use on the Gen 2 shell?

Thanks in advance.

Set ups, can't help there as we tend to race on astro/carpet.

The batt spacers (2 x carbon strips) these can be bought from Xtreme (not included in kit)

Wing mounts- You can use Pred X11 wing mounts or Tamiya 511, poss Losi 22 ones but check the bolt spacing on these ones.

As for cut lines, there is a faint line on the shell but have a look on the 'Show me your Vega' thread for pics of the shells to get an idea

You'll also have to shave a 45 deg chamfer on the rear toe block to give the motor clearence (this was done on purpose to get the motor as close to the gearbox as poss) just takes 2 mins with a dremel or hobby knife.

And i'd highly recommend one these to protect the chassis,after all it is a work of art.:) Put a clear one on first then overlay with the carbon effect.

You should have 2 cut lines marked on the shell, one marked "K" (Cut line for the RB5 conversion) and one marked "T" (Cut line for the Tamiya/Associated conversions)

This may help for a pic on the rear toe block:
