B44 ready to start the indoor season

[Big G]

Spend a few hours routing wires tidy ready to start our indoor season at the ludlow club. I haven't done any setting up yet and still need to get my tyres and a new shell sorted, but thought I'd post some pics anyway

Nice, i like it, what tires are on there now?

[Big G]

shuy green mini spikes I think. they came on the car and work well on dry grass. when the dew starts to fall I popped bb pinks on the back which gave it a lot of rear end grip so sorted the breakaway issue

i like your idea on the electronic idea, got me woundering on changing mine around. i got the spedo and recevier on the opposite side to you. is there any advantages or resons why you repositioned your ariel ? cheers

Those cells are rocketship material , ive a pack and was blown away by the difference compared to my reedy 4600s.

I had it all down the 1 side previously with the PT where the receiver is now. My dad has his there so I moved it over there so I could use the switch mounting on the GTX and still access the one touch button. I saw pics from Oswestry and I think Lee has his there so moved mine and did what he did with the mounting.

Yeah I only got these cells a week ago so yet to try them in the B44. didn't really get a chance to try them in the SC10 as I kept breaking down. It's wet today so indoors will be the next chance next tuesday.

Lipo with a brushed setup?
Id imagine he has to cut the comm every few runs.

It should be ok though just have a temp gun handy.

Our indoor season starts either this month or next.
We run Pink Taper Slicks, not Schumacher mini spikes.

I've also set up my electronics in the same general layout as you - works fine. As far as the aerial's concerned, the corner mounting puts it in a much safer position should the car roll.

Good news is that the stock aerial holder works just fine in this position. You have to open up one of the holes to 4-40, but it's soft plastic so this is no big deal.

I used the original .050 screws through the same hole and it seems to work ok
