Pretty much as Owen explained it. Or you can paint the case, either way works. Heatsink is anodized, but you can always easy off the blue one and make it silver

Im actually going to be selling the blacked out spx soon if anyone is interested.



Chop a normal connector up and make them work How I did them

Heres my car as of now. As I said im swapping esc's soon, so I soldered up the motor pretty fast but people were asking me how I did it.. sldo the wire is to thick def need like 14, or TQ 13 wire. But it matches my car now, no more blue duo The Randy Caster set up wheels are bad ass! If you dont have a set get some! hope the pics are a good size?

Here's more of my RC pics if anybody's interested: http://s125.photobucket.com/albums/p53/94eg/rc/


The trick is to cover all servo, receiver and ESC labels in carbon fiber look decals. You can also use black sharpie to cover up color in your receiver wires. And spend lots and lots of time trying to figure out how best to run wires down the center of the car. Bundle excess wires (even antenna) inside a pieces of heat shrink and squish them down between the electronics.

I have the same setup as you and BOR. I use both servo mounts, and dremeled the servo mount with a 1/4" sandpaper drum. My wire then can lay flush to the side of the RX cleanly.

I've looked everywhere to find purple strapping tape, but I can't find it in stock anywhere. If anyone knows where I can find some, then please let me know.

Some of the people on this thread have amazing picture quality. I tried, but couldn't even get close to the level of detail. Must have good cameras.
