I was thinking the layout looked a bit outdated like the original ZX5 era
I've never been a Tamiya fan BUT the DB01R has won me over, I'm waiting for news mid October

Cool, just ordered 1 then. Still make it, we can always put some weak points in it

exactly, and the 501/511 cars (i have a 501x) handle really well, but people also like the plastic chassis, certainly my DB01R handles well and i love belts and the sealed drivetrain, i just wonder if it could be even a little better setup as as saddle config

Hi Peli,

The guy your talking about above, does he sell carbon sheet to the public? Does he have different grades and thickness?

Cheers,

Brent

The wandering problem has gone (for now), not sure if it was the ball cups or the servo tape under the servo OR BOTH
didn't have time to do a process of elimination as the CS was soon
Just got to fix my thumbs from wandering now

Are the T4 and T4.1 chassis the same Chris ?

By top plate do you mean battery strap or front end nose piece ?


Bobcat has been spending some money, a new Schumacher Cougar SV pro !

What is it like Jimmy ?

Wayne has one as well, so that makes 2 at Ryde.

LOL roman, everyone has asked me that. No i mean top plate, the plate that joins the front suspension arms to the bulkhead to the steering knuckle to the chassis.

If i cant get one i might be able to steal one of my sc10, and yes roman the t4.1 is the same as the t4.

Do you have parts?
