I'll bring everything I can.

I MAY have some spare gearboxes for sale, but either way I'll have some gearboxes with me.

I'm low on shock towers and as I'm trying to sort out a new sub contractor for the c/f parts, I'm not sure if I'll have many with me.

Second time out for me with the MCS in saddle format..

Awesome!! the car is so much better much better balanced and much more predicatable.. love it!

If it wasnt for being " punted " off by a certain schu driver i might have been in better contention for a higher finish at Broxtowe!

Nice shell Geoffroy!

Very glad to hear you're finally getting on with the car Nick.

And now for the coming year, a nice present for the MCS

It's own dedicated website still not completely finished but enough so that you can start using it

Some pics of the saddle set up in mine..

Since taking these, ive removed the fan on the speedo, and had to move my PT onto my servo as it wasnt counting fitted where it is in the picture.

Im running the Big Bores, 25g on the servo and ive made up my own brass weight which goes between the gearbox and the tower.. these total 18g at the moment but have more which i can add to try. Ive tried the brass bulkhead but only in the original stick layout and to be honest didnt like it, I may try it again at somepoint now i have this new layout which improves balance massively

Like the web site fabs!

imagine is due to using that ultra low, ugly bodyshell! lol

With the speedo located on top of the lipo, the shell probably catches on the fan.

nice.
does this mean the saddle chassis can only be used with low-profile servos?

Not at all mate, i use a standard Savox servo and everything fits perfectly. If you do use a low-profile servo there will be a gap between the servo and lipo, so just use some foam to fill the gap.

Yep, if you look at the pictures of my car on the website, you'll notice one of the RB5 foam pads is stuck behind the servo (with double sided tape) to hold the lipo in place.

I knew it was a good idea to keep them in my box all this time
