richarddenton1982 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Well, the radio tray, savox 0235MG and the Killer RC Lipo all came today. Removed the rx box and realised just how crud covered the chassis was! DarkSoul screws rounded off when I tried to remove them but I did a perfect job drilling them out, no damage to dual mount or to the chassis! Servos mounted in the radio tray. Clean chassis. I have fitted all of the electrics now. The Killer RC Lipo has 2 rx plugs on it. Presumably one is for connecting to the radio gear and one is for leaving somewhere convenient for charging without disconnecting. Because it's lipo I'm not gonna charge it in the car. Instead im using one lead to power the rx and the other goes to a switch for my headlights. Very convenient! Because they're in parallel there shouldn't be any dimming or flickering when I steer now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richarddenton1982 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Well, I fitted all of the new parts. Got some bits I'll list for sale in the for sale thread soon, the darksoul kit complete with a hitec servo being the first! I had popped a drive shaft on Sunday, upon inspection tonight it turned out that I had actually broken ANOTHER hinge pin. Thankfully I had a spare so the car is complete and up and running. I really can't believe how much difference the aluminium steering kit plus rhe bearings in the steering link make. It is so quick and so smooth!
