well, tower has the purple ones, but looks like they released them in blue, to match Surikarns, and black, if you want to get rid of the purple blocks...

They haven't shipped to distributors yet. What I am hinting at is you guys need to get them on backorder to get the process going.

I see Tower finally listed the Hara and Surikarn edition cars...

but..what's up with them not carrying any cyclone parts
that's pretty poor parts support for cars they're selling...

I think the problem is that the Cyclone is just too popular!!
All the asian stores are sold out or low on stock due to all the racers running them in asia..

Not sure what the situation is in the US....

Here in Aus... the cyclone is only being run a few people. Not many at all. We struggle to get parts...

oddly though... Tower has plenty of parts support for other HB products like the mini and monster trucks...

How much weight are you guys running to balance the car?
I need more than 30g on the battery side!!!

This is err... strange. Normally it's the non-battery side that needs more weight.

Then again, the Novak BL is quite heavy...

FYI - i'm running spectrum, Novak 4.5, standard Hitec servo...
3800's on the otherside..

i ran the LRP competition esc with the Novak 4.5 and only need it to add 1/4 oz to balance the car and with the LRP motor i had to remove the weight.

what parts do you guys need? The only parts that I had replaced on that car is the front steering knuckle, which i got from my local hobby store (hpi pro 4 part) most of the suspencion parts you can get directly from hpi

contact Dave at B and B hobbies in Hudson Florida 1-727-862-4849, he stocks alot of the Cyclone parts
