Great resource of info for 1/12 scale setup.
Thanks for the info guys. Mark's site is where I actually stole the idea from. After talking to my local hobby shop guru (http://www.hobby2000gatineau.com), it was suggested that the ball on the center post be shimmed up as mentioned by Scrad.

I think I agree with both Guru Roberto and Scrad. Even if the angle is changed slightly, I just can't see not being able to re-tune using springs. It's my opinion that a few degrees change will not affect the handling of the car. Please correct me if I am wrong on this.

Any ideas on this problem....3 foot of antenna wire!!! I'm thinking of wrapping it tight on the roll over. Any other suggestions? Can't afford another receiver right now.

As I write this, can someone explain the no cutting of the antenna wire? I always beleived that the antenna was tuned via lenght. How can this be since we can change xtals? Does my question make sense?
