what i would like to know is

1. my lipo is a squeeze to fit and as the wires come out the side anything i can do to make things a little less snug ?

2. electrics are also a squeeze i currently have them where it says in the manual but theres no routing for the throttle wire to the reciever wheres the best place for it ?

other than that is a slipper clutch a worhty upgrade ? and the airation shocks ?
I use both side wired lipo`s (Demon 5000`s) and bullet (trackpower) lipo`s

The side wired ones as you have said are a tight fit but i`ve used them on and off for 5 months and they work fine all be it not BRCA legal tho.

I also use Trackpower sticks but to get the wiring to fit i had to use Demon 4mm male connector with solder eye Corally style bullets these

Defineately upgrade to a slipper clutch and the dampers are recommended if your gonna start racing as the buggy handles so much better with these fitted.Also the alloy steering rack is a good upgrade (ball raced) but not nessesary.

i4n`s post is really good and gives great links to trustworthy suppliers

heres some picture`s of my DB-01 for wiring reference and battery reference





Hope this helps

Andy
