That's it Potoczak It's funny how it layed out on their site. It's beside Dave picture. The other setups are under it.

I will also add the quality of this car and the way it builds is on par with the $500 kits.

What type of esc and mod motor seems to run well with the car.
I pick my kit up tomorrow with some hop ups.

I run a hobbywing 3.1, it fits in the car nicely. Mod motor not sure as I only run 17.5.

I built the site to be responsive, which means that the pages will scale based upon your monitor resolution and page size. If your page is open wide enough, you will see all of the setups on the side of the drivers' names. If the page is scaled down, you may see setups appear on the sides and then underneath the drivers.

I personally run the Hobbywing V3.1 and have had 0 complaints. I know that the Orca is also very popular in both stock and modified racing.

What brand pinion is everyone running? Not sure if PRS made a running change or its just the 49+T pinions, but I have fitment issues on the D06. I can get the old ones on, but the new pinions are longer by about 2mm so it won't match with the spur.

Have you tried flipping the pinion around?

if you unscrew the motor, you can get it on there, but I have to screw the pinion down right at the very edge of the rotor shank. You can't center the pinion on the spur either. Wished they didn't change the design

I use the CRC pinions without issue. The CRCs are also much lighter than an equivalent PRS pinion.

Maybe you should put the spaming in a lightning 12 specific thread. This is the d06 thread.

Spamming? For posting about a vbc car in a vbc thread? Don't get it, a team manager comes to the forums to help drivers out with their vbc cars and guys are already jumping on him....

He copied and pasted the same exact comment peddling another car. This thread is about the d06, not a marketing platform for this kind of spam. Its not relevant and doesnt belong.
