Is there any official information from Associated Yet because i can't find anything on their website?? thanks idbdoug The RC12R5 chassis has been optimized for 1S LiPo batteries, with the following additional enhancements: Inline battery positioning generates a lower polar moment of inertia for smoother mid-corner steering in high traction conditions Lengthened wheel base for added stability Front bulkhead mounting position widened to give more options for upper control arm length and added adjustability for multiple track and motor conditions Updated rear upper pod geometry increases leverage on center shock to help compensate for the lighter minimum overall chassis mass when using LiPo batteries Stronger blue aluminum chassis braces Thicker 3mm rear chassis brace gives extra support for rear body posts ad side springs |
what is the difference in wheel base for the new conversion kit?
Is this conversion better suit for high traction surface? |
Looks like the conversion kits are making there way into the wild.
Tower is showing them in stock.... Mine should be here tomorrow! :nod: Mike Slaughter |
Yesterday I got an email from Stormer that the kit is in stock. By the time I got around to ordering one they were sold out that afternoon.
Found one at Ampdraw for a few dollars less, Yay!! Almost $16 less than Tower. I'm not sure if it will make a huge difference in the car but I figured that I might as well get the kit so when I rebuild the car the new parts will go on. New is always nice to have. :lol: |
