thanks adam

Would anybody be so kind and post the dimensions of the box? I'vo got to check wether it fits in my baggage in addition to my clothing should I decide to buy the kit on my busibess trip...

[scrawl]

@mes: 15x25x15cm

@charlessito: I've been using Associated and Losi spurs with the D4 slipper.

Using the standard non-slipper shaft, Kimbrough type spurs are compatible (Associated, Robinson, Duratrax to name a few).

I have been looking everywhere for a forum on this ride. I am getting mine on Wednesday. I have been wanting a 4WD buggy for a while. This one seems to be good. Lots of Great INFO on this Forum. I will probaly have a few questions a long the way. This just will be a Fun Basher for now. I plan on using a Traxxas 12T Titan and a XL-5 ESC. I have that lying around. Finally some people with this buggy!!!!!!!!!!!

@scrawl: Thanks for the information, but do you mean inch instead of cm? 15x25x15 cm seems a little small... 38.1x63.5x38.1cm seems a bit large on the other hand

Or is it 51x52x51 or 51x25x15?! The latter would be nice to stow the completed kit inside!

[telboy]

The box is rather large. So would say he meant inch. You can fit the car....and then some, into the box.

[mes]

Too bad, it won't fit in my baggage...
Thank you vey much nontheless!

[scrawl]

Ah, my fault! I measured the box before rushing out of the house.

For anyone who is interested, there are plenty of photos and notes I kept while building the Cyber 10B over at http://psytoy.net/radio-control/buil...hpi-cyber-10b/

Mine is in the mail. Just going to use for fun. But I cannot find the Slipper clutch for sale anywhere. Anyone know where to get it???

Hi scrawl/Adam,

Any idea if the D4's Rear Suspension Mount is a direct fit to the Cyber 10B's?

Thanks in advance.

Anywhere that stock HPI/HB stuff should stock it, if not then they will be able to order it for you.

If you race, then get the slipper in and race it.
I'm more than impressed with it and I'm having better results with this car than I was with the D4!

How does it compare to the SC10 box in size? I have it around, so I can check (never give up!)
I have never had an HPI kit so far, how full is the box? Could you just put the contents into a plastic bag and fold down the box in order to take the kit along in a trolley case?

[telboy]

Yeah you could do that. The box isn't mega full.

In comparison to the SC10 box the Cyber is small! lol
You couldn't fit the SC10 into the cyber box, put it that way.


Why don't you just get rid of the box?

[bjcaldwe]

Empty the box and if you want to keep the box, break it down maybe?

Morning scrawl, any idea if the D4's Motor Mount (61453) and the Center Bulkhead (61454) are a direct fit on the Cyber 10B?

In Theory yes the D4 motor mount does fit, however practically it has too many knock on effects to be a feasible option.

Thanks andy for your reply, am i safe to say that it will fit then? Am asking coz from where I'm from (SG), HPI parts are harder to get than HB parts Trying to gather what are the parts that are compatible, in case things break suddenly.

Am now having some downtime coz I need a new rear suspension mount and the LHS has no stock for it

[scrawl]

The bottom screw holes look identical but the holes for the top brace are different.

The spur gear is also located higher on the Cyber 10B to allow the battery to slide under the central shaft. Even if you do get the D4 mount installed, I think the drive shaft would impeded the battery.

Rear suspension mounts are completely different too.

I really like boxes!

I tried to fit the SC10 Box in one of my two almost identical trolley cases and but for about 5cm/2" it almost fitted inside.

I think I will try my luck, and if it doeas not fid inside, break the box down as suggested.

Thank you guys!

Oh, one more thing: Is the D4 Wing Mount a direct fit?
Edit:
Another 'Oh!' : How mean of Jimmy to show me the Durango vids on youtube, now I do not know AGAIN what kit to buy...I Guess that solved my baggage problem, I'll have to wait and see...
