What esc?

Using the expo function on the radio comes to mind if you want finesse at low speeds/throttle input.

Car is not twitchy, it does what you tell it to do.

+8 body that will fit an MMP under it? Finnisher isn't really right and things get a little hot. Don't want to cut a hole unless I have no other options..

Thanks!

You only have to drop the rear t-plate down to get that weight out of there...you don't have to remove the shock tower.

Actually just have to unloosen the 2 screws that hold the front block on the rear that you adjust antisquat with. Take those two screws out and that piece pulls forward.

I have an MMp that I want to use in my buggy as well. But it just will not fit under the body. I wanted to remove the fan, since my esc run cool. I even looked at the instruction on their site to remove the fan, but i swear mine does not have the tab they want me to cut, in fact i am pretty sure mine does not look like their sketch. So i run a 5 year old lrp sphere because it fits and try to gear for speed, since I am basically forced into blinky, lol. I was tempted to mount my esc on the battery strap towards the back, but I could not make myself do that, so much weight up high.

Finally got my B4.1 WC done, now just waiting on my revtech motor to come in so I can take it to the track and start dialing it in.......

Still unsure of the paint scheme but most likely it'll be a blue/red combo....

Is there anyone who has tried the C hub towers?
Are they much better? I run on loose dirt (qute sandy track) and some parts of the track are carpet/astro

Thanks,
Martijn

And yes it is the stock body that comes with the kit, I also have the jconcept punisher body for it as well and it also fits with the brushless hobbies esc.

Here's another cheap mod that I've done with my FT T4 and it works great:



Its the FT SC10 4x4 VTS slipper setup.....

because that bumper is for bashers and if you try to downside a jump and nose down too low it will likely get caught on the dirt and cause you to wreck

Yes I understand that, however I'm used to 4x4 sct's etc so going back to 2wd buggy is going to be a challenge for me. Once I feel comfortable enough with the buggy it may or may not come off, but for now it stays........
