This chassis may be great for all I know, but it is NOT the official Schumacher one. It is worth pointing this out. The Schumacher made one is U8645.

The alloy chassis for the Mi9 is the same as the Mi8 HGT conversion, so you could get the carbon kit and then get U8645 if you can find one in stock somewhere.

Definitely right (spur) side when using an XFactor at least as that motor is end bell heavy. That is what Sam does.

The shop is correct. The gear diff uses custom spur gears and there are only 2 available, both 48dp. Martin is also correct, the gear diff will not fit the E5 as it will make the rear far too wide....

That one I can't answer I'm afraid. Sam was running the new damper rods at the BRCA National last weekend though and they are definitely easier to fill. No difference in feel either.

Not in the near future, no. The company feel that people have not had the chance to make the most of the E4 yet due to the lack of racing.

A prototype car has been used in the UK for the last season and has won several championships. I have no idea when it will go into production though.

The alloy pivot gives the option of running the pivot 0.5mm lower, good on really high grip but we run it like that everywhere. That is the only major option we use. It is worth having the 1 degree...

We use thin double sided carpet tape under the battery, replacing every battery change. That stops the battery from moving. Only a small strip is required.

Remember, Andy and the rest of the design team have had the unenviable task of improving on a car that has just won two World Championships! Not an easy thing to do. I think he's done a pretty good...

I decided to look at this on our Icon. I can make the LiPo stops the same as in the photo by loosening the two screws, moving them and re-tightening. Looks like it is just a matter of making sure...

We don't run 17.5 in the UK much (yet) so I don't really know sorry. It is also very dependent on track size, motor, timing etc. It is best to ask other racers at the club you are going to race at as...

Alloy pivot parts are worth it as it possible to get the pivot 1mm lower than the plastic one, that is how the UK team runs it. Get the pivot spacers as well. Don't use the washers that come with it,...
