The steering is hitting the steering saver. See yellow circle in pic.

Ok. I was considering placing the foam tire/wheel on a lathe and cutting 2mm off to make the wheel 24mm. Sounds like there are choices.

must be the servo you are using. I see people with Sanwa-WRX and Fut9550(i use) with out any problems.

and I think you are using the short servo arm, you should use the tall one.

is there a place i can go to see how people have their electrics jammed into their SD? I just got mine, and i know im not going to have enough room for everything else after i put my servo in. This is my first non tub chassis car so im not really used to them.

Thanks lem2, I'll try the tall one.


NVisible, here's my old pic.

ahh, see my servo doesnt mount that way, ive got it paralell to the chassis. I assume thats the only way i can do it on this chassis? that rayspeed kit looks sweet btw

here is the servo with the tall servo arm/horn

NVisible: the CGM also is a little cramped that's why I went with a low profile servo. If you go a few pages back, there is a racer who mounted his servo the other way on his SD which is perpendicular to the chassis.

turn your servo 90 degrees and thats how mine is. makes it even worse.

look no further, it was AkuMan who mounted his servo on the SD the CGM way way!

edited: dunno if that's the way you mountit on the servo on the RS chassis but i saw one mounted that way in an SSG a few pages back. peace and happy racing!!!!

To give you an idea, here is an old pic of my car, a regular Black SD.

interesting. did you have to drill an extra hole?

forty6

Yes, you will need to drill 2 new holes. Just remember to measure twice, drill once.

i think ill just buy the rayspeed conversion

id really hate to drill this purdy chassis
thanks alot for your help

jas

Does the Rayspeed conversion has the same body mount locations as the standard SD?

Thanks in advance!

I would think since the rear shock tower is longer, the mounts would be moved out, the front would stay the same.
