Just do what manual said. If you found it's too difficult to fill the shock oil, try this: drill a small hole on very top of side of shock cap (beware the location, don't block the mounting area), fill the shock as manual said, put the cap on, refill it again through the small hole, than find a screw to close the hole up.

Or... using TRF shock instead...

Default NTC3SLCG radio plate prototype, field test photo

Got chance to do the field test with new RX location today, no more radio intereference problem...




The weight without body is 1623g (with AMBrc transponder and 25g balance weight under battery position). With body goes to 1724g, 1g lighter than IFMAR rules. Need to add 5g under battery to meet the rule next time...

for ntc3freak:
I might do small production run (less than 20 I guess) if I can find a good quality with fare price factory to manufacture for me. My prototype doesn't come with good quality and I did lots works to correct the manufacture flaw. I will let everyone know if I can find a good factory for small production run.

There is reason why I still using AE stock graphit brace: Accessibility

If you frequently reassemble your NTC3 like I did. You will find one piece radio tray is no-good because everytime you disassemble radio tray, you need to take front tower off (3 screws), plus 6 screws on radio tray. With AE stock graphit brace, all you need to do is 4 screws (with my design; AE stock graphit tray still be 6 screws). It's much easier for your front-arm, especially when you got a servo failed in middle of race...XD

As for wiring, yes, my new design on paper already have extra wire hole in front of RX hole to let all 4 wires (battery, steering, throttle, and AMBrc transponder) goes through. I will hand cut the hole first see if it's ideal solution for wiring...

Default NTC3SLCG radio plate prototype, wire hole

After 2hrs drilling, sanding, the wire hole finally finished. Now the wiring looks lots better...

just go down to Associated and i can bet that they would market your new part as a part of their factory team collection.
