The new car will not be called an Assassin but will be called the RDX. Looks really sweet. Coming in September....

Wow! Micro electronics DEFINITELY required!

I like the drivetrain layout and love the look of the motor mount!

Yep, that thing is narrow. I wonder if it takes low profile sevos only. It seems that a standard servo will hit the front belt.

Default RDX Info

Its not as bad as you guys think as far as space goes. I raced at the onroad nats in Portland, and got to see Tosolini's car first hand. The servo is flipped around so where the servo horn will be on the outside where as the Assassin had the servo horn on the inside near the belt. Standard servos will work. As far as electronics goes it should be no different to a regular assassin. I mount a Novak XXtra on its side between the servo and Motor tucked in near the top deck. Then I mount a LRP Q2 to the outside of the chassis also between the servo and motor. The layout is clean and Functional. I can still get to the channel changing dials.

Wow, I would love to see the car with the electronics mounted. It must just be the angle of the pics making it look so tight.

Chris will probably be running it at the Hitec Race this weekend. A parking lot will be a interesting test.

Yeah, Corally has been using them for a long...LONG...time. But some people didn't like them, so they went away from them with the Assassin. Glad to see Corally is making a return to what is a very good idea.

I saw Chris's Car run at the Nats Parking Lot and it was fast. The car loaded up did not look to much more cramped then say a CGM or TC3. I think this car has some sweet upside to it and having Chris around to help with setups and tech stuff should be sweet to run here in the states.

Darkseid you going to make a return to your Corally roots?
