Sorry folks, but newbie here again. I now have purchased everything I need to get the buggy moving. (I think)
However I'm stuck on a few details.

1) I have purchased a Futaba Skysport 4VF 40mhz transmitter and 115F 5 channel receiver. I was told this would be suitable for cars, even though it was intented for planes. However I can't get hold of a manual and am lost without one. Both sticks seem to go up/down/left/right ??
Which slots do I plug in my servo, and which slot do I plug in my speed controller.

2) I have a novak dually speedo, but it is missing a on/off switch. Do I need one of these?

3) The Ariel on the receiver is nearly twice as long as needed. I don't want to cut it incase this has a negative effect. Can I double it up or twist it tight?

4) Can I cut a hole in the bodyshell were the speedo heatsink sits, or is this against the rules? I am intending to start racing beleive it or not.

5) I have some powerful NIMH batteries and wondered if I could leave them discharged for a long period of time (don't have a charger yet!)

Any assistance would be most welcome
