i dont think a servo horn was ever included in the kits. just use a horn that fits your servo (try to use a reasonably weak one that will break before the servo instead of a servo saver though as the torque required from the steering is too much to get a nice sharp feel)

[migsy]

good on you buddy...all you need to do now is fit an x-brace.

[niggs98]

as migsy says get the xbrace as in the long run it will save you money on gearbox tops. a lot of yardys setups for the x10 will be a perfect starting point for you untill you get the big bore shocks then any of the x11 setups will work. all the info you will ever need is either on here or on www.the-pred.co.uk (hope the link is ok admin, if not pls delete) as well as all the help you could ever want.

hope you enjoy the car

thanks guys (by the way, im already on there) ill experiment next week and get it running (week off!!) then after my GCSE's ill go racing at EPR

i should get a job after my exams aswell (not to sure in this day and age) so i can buy the big bores, and i think i already have the x-brace....

thanks for the help,
chris

hi there u cant really be going to a better track with the pred in the fact NIGGS is a regular there and has done alot of running and testing there so will be able to help u so much

[kwik]

the last few days, iv been so lucky.... lol

[restimax]

@ kwik

[niggs98]

as shane says im a regular at epr so when you next come up there, just ask at race control and they will point you in my direction. will always have loads of pred spares and any help you need with the car and setup

[restimax]

yes, ask to Nathan...

Nathan it has always many spares...becuse is not a great driver...

[kwik]

im sure hes better than me, i thank the lord i have so many spares myself!! lol

and what do you do for power at epr. i have a charger that runs of 12v but not a 12v power supply lol

[niggs98]

personally i use a generator and power supply as it is the easiest way. either get a good lesiure battery or a cheap genny, which ever suits your budget. for a one off im sure one of us will have a spare outlet you can jump off to help you get started

[kwik]

i could probebly get hold of a 12v car battery type thing... should work it all out sooner or later...

@kwik
do you have a good charger for a ni-mh?
