410v3 hop-up requirements ??

[lordnikon]

Looking at buying a 410v3, is there any upgrades needed to prevent breakages or make it nicer/easier to drive ?

1. Alu Rear Gearbox brackets
2. Alu Servo Saver - TD or Tresrey

Idd i think these are the most important...
I've got a lot more hop ups but they aren't needed!

Out of interest why do you need the alu servo saver? What difference does it make to the plastic one?

i've split two plastic servo savers, as they "save" they seem to split straight up the side.

The plastic one is ok but they can jump a spline on the servo causing the steering to be out. The 410 has a servo saver on the steering but in some cases the servo saver will work but the servo horn can still jump on impact. An aluminum one means that the servo saver will do its job just as well but without the risk of the servo horn jumping. Nothings worse than trying to drive most of the race with the steering out.

Get the TD one as all others seem too long.

Are you mixing servo saver with servo arm ??
