And who wants to buy my 705 with a billion bux worth of spares... I think ebay will be seeing quite a few 705:s soon...:nod:
Think I'll keep the spare tank though.

Re: Re: Re: Lots of talk
 

Viva la dogbones;) !

whats a poor fit to one man,is a tight fit to another..

I,for one,didn't mind the "massaging" needed for my Impulse and veteq........At least I ended up with a car with no play,rather than having to add shims.....

And I'll tell you something else..the cars stay slop free.....

a few of us fom Md are going to make the trip to myers not sure how many yet

Hi CutePig, pls don't get it wrong. If you have a change to visit our homepage (my signature below), you will realize that we indeed selling Taiwannese R/C which is the G4... I tell you, out of the box (standard setting) performed much better that S705 (I did try them both with my own fair hand) but that doesn't mean s705 will be outrun by the G4 does it?

I do respect what you believe and I hope you could do the same..

710 in Dec, 710R,....... in the next 6 months ? 715 if that doesn't work ? will the serpent people still be making parts for my 705? I'm praying,.................

Serpent has always provided long term support for their "older" cars. It will be more dependant on the LHS if they will order parts. We still have parts for the Excel which stopped shipping in 96...

Julius, thanks for the assurance, by the way, how is the 710 compared to the 705 ?

I hope serpent finally makes the 710 to have a regualr reciever pack!!

That would depend on your defenition of standard:)

I guess there are almost as many different packs as cars these days. Although I must admit ours is probably the most exotic.

We did not wish to compromise the centerline tank position, so we made a different battery shape.

I for one always redo the wiring of my receiver packs anyway. I never felt comfortable with relying on the spot welding of others. Guess it's like fuel. If you mix your own you know whats inside.

That has truth to it
but,, what if the tight fit is not the same? I am talking about inconsistent tight fit
then thats no good!

Easier. :D

One of our top priorities was to make a car that works from the box while still being highly tunable to personal preferemce. I think we did a great job in fulfilling that and many more of our wishes.

I'll spill all my feelings in an article after the full release.

Thanks Juius for your replies.Looking forword to the new car.I run the 705 out of the box not far from stock settings just diff springs and droop and some tuning to my driving style>I do how ever run 47/22 18/25side for a 21/2 over drive with same size tires and it works for me great I run a tight tech perm.track and the car handles great been out of rc for 4yrs and just got back in 2 months ago and the car has been an A main car for me just catching up on my driving.What ever Serpent puts out I know it will be a great car Ive run nothing but Serpents for onroad in the different classes and have had nothing but good things come from the car! I know several people here in the states that have already ordered the car and looking forword to a new reign in the nitro tc class!

wondering if the diffs from 705 fit in the new 710?what bout the front sway bar mounts?rear sway bars?shock bodies?i sure am glad to see a new impulse,i love serpents an never quit runnin them,i got a side exhaust single speed when they first came out an always have had one since.i dont care wat anyone says serpents #1,an this new car is guaranteed to make all those new school guys who think serpent is old shut up.cant wait to get me a 710 for next season.
