Attached is the body on a 1/7 scale chassis. The wheel well cutouts need to be shifted but the body is being used on the 1/7 scale chassis.

cheers

I always recommend Hitec, but it depends on how much you want to spend.

I have sold a lot of the Savox 1257TG and 1258TG, so that seems to be a good choice as well.

Any brand in which the servo is over 150oz torque for the steering and 100oz torque for throttle. I use a digital Hitec for the steering in my IGT 1 and analog Hitec 965 for my throttle/brake. Just make sure if you use two digital servos, your Rx pack has more than 1500maH of capacity. You would hate to have your car become a runaway due to draining a weak Rx pack during your race.

So I went out and tested my new 1/7 DM-1 last weekend. I currently have an old Mach 427 with JP-4 in it, just for initial testing. The suspension and tires(SC8 stock..) were all wrong, but jeebus it was FAST...

Anyway, I'm trying to settle on what engine to run in this thing. I have a new Jammin JPX 21, and a new Losi 454 with closed backplate.. Not sure on either. Would really like the Alpha 23. Kind of assume a 25 - or something between a 21 and a 28 would be ideal.. What do you guys run? Not gonna be racing, but will be running on onroad tracks primarily.., and not splashing out for an OS 25 - which I would imagine is the dream engine for this car...

Kind of worried the Jammin will lack the balls down low, and I'm not too keen on the Losi cuz it'll drink so much fuel.. The Losi though I expect to have good power for it...
