That would be THIS conversion.. Made by Chevron Models.

Welll it was, they dont do it anymore. This is a scan from the manual, and the components assembled ready to go. The carbon plate goes where the servo used to go.

Tony, Is there anything Mini you don't have or have had?

Thanks mate
Yes, you're right. I saw it in Jap Magazine with Monster "M" chassis body for M03 .... I thought it's a home made by Jap racer.

Could you make the pics (manual) larger res. (1024 x 768) .... ?
I can't see clearly the attached pics .... I want to see where the mounting for the servo holder....

Rgds

Deves there are a few mini-related things that I dont/haven't had...but only a few I have to say. Hey, SOMEONE has to have them all don't they?

Akuhon, I've scanned a fullsize copy of both sides of the manual to my personal website. You can d/l them from there
Go to http://home.iprimus.com.au/anthonygr...Steering03.jpg
and http://home.iprimus.com.au/anthonygr...Steering04.jpg

for the 2 files. Let me know once you've got them and I'll take them back down again until I put them up on rc-mini.

I'm building a car up with the full conversion over the next few days and it'll be on rc-mini.net as soon as its done.

F-103mini...actually, i think they used a wider body on that shortend chassis....i saw it in one of my Japanese RC magazines recently....i'll have to look again and let you know which one. but it was for a M-chassis event.

as for the rear mount servo conversion....i know where there is one of those for sale at a hobby shop in japan, but it's really old! the baggie is falling apart.

I just wondered if guys had any experience running on carpet?
Mainly I wanted to know whether to go M03, M03M, or M03L ?

Only allowed Tamiya Hop Ups, so anything I would NEED that you guys might also know would be great !
thanks

That's depend on the tracks.
Many turns = M03
Many long straight = M03L
in-between above = M03M ....

Better if you keep handy the 2 chassis joins (M and L) beside the M03.
(My original M-chassis is M03L)
Also don;t forget the bodies ....

And for the hop-up I can't help that much ..... 'cause I mostly play outlaw class...

OK ... got them ... thanks mate ....
Let me know your project, once it's ready ...

Cheers,

No problem Akuhon. I'll take them down now that you have them.

I'm building the car up now, probably have it on rc-mini by tomorrow.

Hey guys, how is the handling of converted steering of mo3??? it looks like mo4..

It was over 12 months back when I last used that setup, but out of the two of us that tried it (on 2 separate cars) neither of us could really tell any difference....

akuhon, toni or anyone,

have you tried this part:
http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/produc...ducts_id=20924

i guess with this part, you can use a micro/mini servo and lower the cg. not quite sure if it affects the turnbuckle angle or something.

regarding the mod, relocating the steering servo at the back, i would have no space for the electronics.

I don;t know about this part.... I guess you're right .... I see Tech-racing also made one.... I don;t know Yeah Racing HK also make one.... I bet the price is cheaper than Tech-Racing.

The Yeah Racing part is a direct (but much cheaper) copy of the Tech one. We've tried the Tech one and it achieves.....nothing, not a thing. In fact lowering the servo creates another problem as you need to change the servo saver then.

However, it does look cool and sometimes thats more important than anything!

Yes, I guess so.... no different ... but I'm after a bit weight transfer to the rear .... I hope it to work by doing this ....

And also, I see you post HPI mini tires. It's rubber, right...
Do yuo have any experience with other rubber tires for m-chassis ? I see there are some from : RIDE, PIT-SHIMIZU ....

Please share with us..... I don;t have any experience with them 'cause I only use foam....
Actually because it's cheaper than rubber (cost of rim, insert and tires) and it fits my style....

Do you also have M01/M02 4WD conversion by Tech Racing ? I think this one is the oldest conversion for M-chassis. Now, they (Tech-Racing) did the same thing with M03 .... Post some pics if you have, here or in your web...

Cheers,
