I believe that's just a makeshift template for checking the bodyshell dimensions during tech inspection.

Yep.InitialD is correct. rcsabah made it for easy tech'ing. can check body height, width, after run height, tail width & length.

The most obvious one is the front but my recent experience with the 710 showed that the side one gave way first before the front !
The rear belt would last the longest in my opinion.

Like they say in F1 (and I can't wait to watch the Aussie GP this weekend), you'd need a Superlicense before you can get your paws in the driver's seat.

Everyone already cut theirs but end up the body is too low to meet the rules stipulated for the race and have to increase height another hole.

Hey guys, this is more a motor question than a 710 question, those of you with NOVA based motors, what air filters do you use\recommend, as the novarossi carb has one BIG throat, but it has a plastic venturi thingy to make it 5.4mm. I have had a look at the motorsaver buggy .21 filter, will it be race legal (ROAR) do you think?
03-04-2004, 01:03 AM

The one that I'm currently using is a Motorsaver one but I believe it's made for .12 carbs. I don't know if there's any rulling in ROAR or IFMAR with regards to carb filters.

Thank you, I am sure I bought one similay D, but it is WAY too small to fit on, it has an 11mm fitting, but it looks like I need a 15 or 16, I will measure it as soon as I get a vernier.

I only know of P5 and S5 but M5 is pretty new to me.For your info, all NovaMax engines are tuned by Massimo Fantini.
