aluminum upper plate
anyone installed an aluminum upper plate? i just got one and it wont fit on either servo setup.. the syclone has a straight setup and the tornados is an L shape?? how is the battery pack supposed to fit in? are you supposed to cut it or something?? I have pics if needed.. Thanks

RE: himoto rapida pro
same as the redcat lightning VX, they seem to have the least problems of the group... I was worried when I bought my syclone... yes it has broken a couple times.. but it has been more fun than not... I am glad I got it.. I am sure you will be please as well

RE: Help!!!!
I dont know if you want to try it like that... unless you want to be spinning every where... it isnt stable at highspeeds at all... but it depends on how you like it more than anything... as for after run oil I have no idea.. I have never used it.. . I use veggie oil or cooking spray for air filter oil... works fine, and it is mad cheap

where can you get an on/off switch for the receiver? if you buy a new one does it come with one? or do i have to go to radio shack and find one?

RE: Help!!!!
lol.. ya I wish I could find mine [&o] so i set my camber as negative as I could on all four wheels.... I wouldn't recommend it for driving in a straight line... maybe if you are trying to show off to the neighborhood kids... it makes the car feel like it is really !QUOT!light!QUOT! even when you are going slow.. I could get it to spin a donut on three tires with the alignment like that.. it was neat.. seemed to be easier on the tires too... probably because less than 1/8 of them was touching the ground when it turned..

have you checked the toe and the caster alignment on the front wheels? mine were all screwed up when I got mine, I used my protractor to get them how I wanted them.. made a world of difference.. goes straight like an arrow now..

I just bought some tires and a couple clutch springs cause they were cheap.. the place is a run down old building in the lowest bowels of Utah, I don't think they get much business.. the track is nice though... should I just go with the redcat aluminum shocks? or should I mess around and find some that will fit?
