Hello
I just tested my own F104Pro Ver. II on our local track and it was.... PERFECT
I was surprised how it was going out of the box....
anyway, there is one thing wondering me, It's alum servo mount... I've got the plastic one, but I just can't see a point in buying the alum one...
What's the difference between alum/plastic on track? Or to be correct, is it worth buying?

Maybe you've overfilled the shock?

Du-Bro's Tru-Spin Prop Balancer PN 499 does a real nice job balancing F1 rears and other remote control car wheels.
F1 fronts rotate so freely on the car itself that the fronts can be balanced with the wheels on the car but fronts can also be balanced with the Du-Bro Tru-Spin.

Any setups for a asphalt bumpy track with with 3 180 turns one of them really tight plus gearing suggestions for a 21.5 brushless

The shaft stops in the cap and can go no further, this should provide more than enough range as the chassis will drag before the shock travel is used up

I noticed there is a bit of space behind the rear wing when mounting onto the car, enough space for a red flashing LED (for that scale look).
Two options I see for this;
a) LED wired to car power supply
b) Small button battery module that is part of the wing, with small push button switch.
Anything off the shelf?
Anybody made their own that they want to share?

One other thing, I went for the 53901 TRF Special damper.
It comes with a White spring which I think is Medium?
Are there other spring options for Soft, Hard?
Or do you just have the option of oil type for this?
My best 'guess' is this set - p/n: 84117:

If i am not mistaken, there should be a colorcoding on the spring.
Like red,yellow,blue or none.
It is a small dot on the end of the spring.
It is the same as the normall colored springs.
Oil i would start with if you use Tamiya,300 and work your way from there.
