Try these

Don't buy the carbon steering plate as they don't fit well enough and it binds up, the alloy turnbuckles from psm work well and are lighter then titanium, I used alloy screws on mine and my running weight is now 3260grams with 4600/4s SMC shorty and tekin pro4 hd 1850kv motor, it's an awesome combo and great weight.

This car will last a long time when taken care of.

Have fun

Really looking to reduce shock to the esc. Mugen Eco mount flexes nicely.

You can also use a thin(1/8 inch thick) piece of black impact resistant foam. I normally shoe goo lexan to it and then shoe goo the foam to the chassis. The lexan allows you to be able to take the esc off without ruining the foam.

I found I like the shorty pack just about all the way forward. Car is awesome!! Finally a car I can push and not find myself feathering throttle everywhere. Love it. What would be the first change to keep the rear end just a tic more planted? I need the Orange springs but until then I'll have to make a minor change. Should I change arm position on hub or on tower? Or I have +1 hexes could try too. Im on hole 3 on hub and 9 on tower. Don't want to take away any steering if possible. Thanks
