Yeh, me too. I loved the F201 and I only sold it because I had done everything that I intended to do with it, but if Tamiya were to release another chassis, for sure I'd buy it!

i have a novak sythesized and a jr310. i needed to access the dials for changing the channel. when i put them on their side its a snug fit with no servo tape. i am afraid of the receiver case cracking during a crash.

If you go back a few pages, you will see my old F1 (which is now ford_racing's) and that's got all th electrics mounted and everything, so that might help.

Use good quality velcro to attach the receiver, then you can access the dials pretty easily.

Hi Marty,

Any news on my brother's (George C) kit? He comes home from work and asks, "Anything in the mail for me?"

He will certainly put miles on it when it arrives.
