Haha, that ski jump is called the 'Bus Stop', cause the busses pull into the bus stops at 100mph!

And thanks man, Ive kind of gone away from helis, hence the reason i started 1/8th offroad about a year ago. Still fly them, just at demo's and stuff like that.

the mugen is just as competitive as any other car on the market and probally one of the best rough track cars as well. No need for a geometry change

Not sure what the cost will be. I have the original X6 kit and would like a new car but I don't think I would spend much extra to get the US kit. If I didn't already have the long chassis and springs maybe. Who know many guys seem to think the 6R is better than the 6, how true that is I don't know.

A few of the guys at my local club used to run the lightened axles, joint cups and servo saver posts on the MBX6 a couple of years ago. They are very light but we found that the axles would break if you got hit in the rear and the joint cup pin would tear the softer ali up quite quickly. The servo saver posts are good.

Yup, ive run O.S. for many years, even in my rc helis. Theyve only released a .91 O.S. Speed for 90 sized helis about a year ago!

The latest O.S. is much smoother in the mid to high range, although the .21 VZB Spec II is an insanely angry motor!
