You have any pics of it without the shell ?? I haven't run it yet, other than in the house, and I'm not in a club, so other than a quick blast on the road in front of the house it'll be a shelfer. Here's some pics without shell Edited February 12, 2021 by Cleon73 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_Q Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Fabulous gents well done, and thanks for sharing 👍 stock shell looks fab! I love the andrews livery too, I once had a ride in Russel brookes’ rs500- great memories 😀 is that one a tamiya body? I’m doing an rc rally project at the moment- these are tempting me to drop those and get one of these instead 😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand how the battery affects performance, I'd assume that was down to the motor?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian-2.0 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Yes I fitted a brushless motor but with the standard 7.2V Ni-MH battery It didn't quite have the same oooomph as the 11.1V Lipo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post oodboo Posted April 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2021 Here's mine. My second MF01x chassis. I like them. I've got clear body waiting for some paint and an m06 chassis on the way for another livery. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
