Serpent 747 Roller, Just getting started.
Hay all, Decided to give 1/8th offroad a rest and delve into some on-road racing. I've managed to find a pretty good Serpent 747 roller to get started, see how I go then upgrade later on. What recommendations do you all have for beginners? eg what servo speeds and weights are recommended for throttle/steering?

I ran low profile servos in my 747 and still do in my 748. These are very good for the money and perform very well http://sanwa-denshi.com/rc/car/servo/ers-971.html you can at least use the specs as a guide of what you are looking for in a suitable servo.
Although they will handle lipo (they are rated at 6v though) run them on life 6.6v.
The only other recommendation I have is to strip and rebuild the car as per the manual. Run the stock setup and give it a go! I'm sure you'll love it.
What engine are you planning to run?

Novarossi Rex Legend or something like that would be ideal from the Novarossi range. However don't rule out Picco. The EMX-WC is a fantastic engine and is cheaper than most of the Novarossi's unless you go for the cheapest novarossi's like the strum or ison.

if your budget is tight don't rule out a RB speed 12 (inexpensive) combined with a nova 2660 pipe and medium conical header i used a pair of the 1251mg in my 10th scale
