cougar sv 2nd batch
 

does ne1 know wen these will be in shops? and will all the minor issues have been fixed?

HI ste

Just been on phone to Shumacher today asking about this, they said there is no date as yet but there hoping to have them in the next few weeks but could not give me any date as yet. So fingers crossed they will be in the shops soon.

The problems with the gear box, there is a new layshaft to replace the old one which, i am running the new one and works Great (Pins do not come out) so i would think they would come with the new kits as its replaced the old layshaft.

Thanks
Ben

Hi Ben

Where can we get new lay shaft from?

bolton model mart- 01204 382 282 (we have them in stock just ring and ask for Ben and i will sort it out for you) got a few in stock the pins are a press fit you do not use the orings with these as the ends are bent over so you cant get the pins out.

There is no 1st batch left so the 2nd batch you will know as Schumacher have them instock.

Thanks
Ben

So those of us already running SVs get the new layshaft??

not that i am aware best speaking to shumacher.

Will do

Let me know how you get on Mikey.

couger new batch

Sorry to highjack this Cougar thread, but does anybody know if there has been a similar situation with the SX2? Was the first batch fine, or has there been revised batches to fix any issues.

I only ask because I'm about to buy one and didn't want to buy one from an old batch.

By the way, what's wrong with the gold turnbuckles?

Cheers.

They easily bend! With a high spec kit why didn't Schumacher inc.titanium turnbuckles to put the icing on the cake? Changing mine to Lunsford ones, only steering links to do now.

Cheers.

Any idea which RC shop sells the Lunsford ones to fit the CAT?

DMS is your best bet.

Cheaper sv release date
 

Does anyone know of the release date for the cheaper kit version on the cougar,been pricing up a new 2wd and it looks the best one.:confused:

No problems with the sx buddy

Just make sure you get all the alloy bits etc you need from the old cat
Dont get me wrong you dont need all of them but for reliability and strength and ease of setting up they work well indeed!
