Just ordered a 511 and now starting to think about spares etc.

Mikey, I run the 4mm tower from Fibrelyte as suggested but be warned if you hit anything hard other stuff will bend/break before the tower that cost a lot more to fix. I'm probably going to run the standard kit item next year so as to stop these little problems
That said, I only had two shunts that caused proper damage and they were very severe so normal racing should be fine ............ just a thought matey

Good to know, cheers.

Just need to stock up on wishbones, hinge pins, shock towers etc.

Best place to get 511 spares?

What generally breaks on the 511?

Shock tower
Wishbones
Shock Shafts
Hingepins
Steering arms

I've broken the front upper top deck. Alec has bent some blue, and chassis.....

Get a 501 and strip it for spares, you get alot of bits from it.
