Dan it looks like there is enough room to move the Tekin to the front of the battery even with the regular size servo. It would be a very tight fit even with the small Spektrum rx but it looks possible?

that's the exact electronics layout I'm going with too, just replace the saddle packs with the shorty lipo and that's what mine will look like...if it ever gets here!!

Also looks like you ditched the body posts altogether and went with only Velcro? Hadn't even thought of that, sweet idea!! Just might have to steal it

Good work

I'll be running exactly the same layout but with a Nosram Pearl Evo V2 and the newer 60c Vampire Lipo's. I've always used Velcro to fasten my bodyshells on and my 22 will be no different - cant stand those body clip posts being used!

All in all, great job... luving it!

Brilliant paintjob and installation! Now I wonder if I should put the RS in the back, too...
Well, I guess the Savöx 1251 won't mind being alone in the front with the Sanwa 451 receiver!

Mid motor cars are usually more consistant and easier to drive on our tracks, over in the US where grip levels are lower they tend to favour rear motor cars as the generate more rear wnd grip...

Just finished building mine, rear motor for now as I only have sticks.

The car is amazing overall.

I followed the kit setup and the rear got a lot of positive camber, I can use the inner camber link or shorten the turnbuckles but look for you point of view about it as I thought usually you look for negative camber.

Can't wait to run it !

Its not front wheel drive, its mid motor rear wheel drive which changes the weight bias and it suits the majority of UK tracks

There is no such thing

Mid Motor - Motor in front of the rear wheels, motor turns same way as wheel driving the front of the car down. also it brings some weight forward.

Rear Motor - Motor is behind the rear wheels. Puts more weight on the rear wheel to increase traction.

Again both rear wheel drive just different motor position.
