I hope so as that's what I'v got and would love to try the Gen 3 out on my car, I imagine Vega will as the Associated is a popular platform for the Vega conversion.

Keep an eye on Oople and the Facebook page for news

I have to say it does look awesome! & love my RB5 Vega.
Does anyone know how much the RB6 conversion will cost?
Or is it a case of if you need to ask you can't afford it! Lol.
Would like to know so I can transfer some cash!

This is the RC equivalent of a Bugatti kettle!

That's not true, I've just googled the Bugatti kettle and it looks rubbish. Also, it's designed to replace the Kyosho kettle, so does actually serve a purpose.

I might be daft but the chassis and weight kit look stunning but how is the weight kit secured down ? If you use double sided then the weights are higher then the cut outs ! Getting rid of the need for them ??

Hi Phil C,

As the chassis's have been machined out, the weights sit snuggly in the pockets. All your radio gear etc goes on top of it as usual - I hope this helps
