Yes Mike, we have the servo connectors in stock at the store. For about $5 you can do three or four servos.

Your'e right about the one-way, but the brake disc can still be used as the MTX-3 has two separate discs sandwiching the aluminum "kung fu" star.

Speaking of brake discs, James just got some 3Racing #"MTX3-015 Brake disc for MTX3"...does anyone know if these are supposed to replace the stock discs, you need 2 of them? Or does this part replace the inner "star" coolinf fan part?

Chuck....the 3racing disks are simply the metal disks....with slots cut....you need two of them and keep your stock kung-fu star....I cut my inner kung-fu star to match the slots....looks cooler...and lost about 1/2 a gram....
....makes me WAY faster....

Chaps,
Didn't have a terriffic day's racing, today. We think someone turned on a radio - car went full noise into the concrete gutter at the end of the straight - got a good 3 metres of air, though.
Anyway, bent chassis, busted top deck, broken plastic brace. It could have been a lot worse actually, and it has been a long time since we broke anything.
rjl supplied the spares, I did a rebuild, missed all the heats and Sam ran the final coming fifth. rjl was nearly as blistering as last meeting and won.
Sooooo . . . . . this looks like an excellent excuse to get a Mugen 4mm chassis, yeah?
Also is there any "brilliant" alternative to the carbon top deck - the stock one isn't wonderfull quality IMHO.
And who makes those neat carbon right side braces?
Thanks in advance for any input.

for 0.8 module gearing what parts needed to replace? other than pinion and spurs?
08-01-2004, 01:10 PM
0.8m gears......carbon brace
K-factory has a carbon right side brace......3-racing has a different top-plate....
You only need to change pinions and spurs to use the 0.8 gears., no other parts required.

Can someone post a good closeup shot of their rear suspenion? I just put my kit together and my rear suspension seems setup wrong. It seems like the shock bodies are touching the shock tower.

On my othe car, I did the same thing from the outside (shortening the servo wires). You can buy the any style servo connector unassembled (JR/Sanwa/Fut/KO Propo, etc.) and just trim the wire to length, add the pins to the ends of the wire and then insert the pins into the plug body. I did it this way because I thought it was easier than opening the servo case and having to unsolder/solder on the circuitry board-YIKES!
can someone please give a link to where i can get these pins. will they fit into the standard airtronics blue connector?I've been wanting to shorten my wires but did not want to open servo. thanks for your help..
