This might be a silly question, but what NMH receiver pack does the 733 take? have been reading alot of people have been using a LiPo setup and hadn't read about the other options.

I have a feeling it is a flat pack the same as the NT1!

Thanks in advance

You can mount your personal transponder there as well as under the tank.

Has anyone had to shim up the servo saver shaft so that the servo saver doesn't hit the radio tray

Actually the steering bellcrank doesnt hit the upperdeck. If you set the front belt at the loosest setting, like I did, the bottom part of the bellcrank is hitting the diff. I will set my belt tention in the middle slot.

Thanks DJ, I ran the Blitz Altis 2.3 and the Stratus back to back and the Altis has the most steering but it is tail happy. The Stratus felt neutral as usual but on the 733 it turns really well. I'm going to work a setup around the Altis, see if I can take advantage of that steering and all that straight line speed.

You must be doing something wrong, cause nothing binds on my car. Maybe take some pics. Dont shim anything, it should go together tension free without any mods.

I know of another person that had that problem and he shimmed it up but not sure why he had to do that. It worked fine on the track though, no issues that we could see.
