I live and race in the same city as the FTW guys. I will hit them up and see if they have plans to make a body. I really like their stuff as well!

How close is the body to the side guards?

so can i ask what FTW shell this is please

The body is real close to the sideguards.

Its the Night Fox XB9 body.

Having some trouble getting my blue ofna box to work. Its been used before so the wheel is worn down to 74mm instead of what it is new (76mm). But I don't think that's the problem because the wheel is being stopped by the chassis and I would think a smaller wheel would fit up in the slot further and make contact with the flywheel easier? I definitely don't wont to grind out the slot/chassis to get it in there, but the flywheel seems really raised. What other starter boxes are guys having luck with?

I have the blue box also and have no issues starting my buggy. Wheel is worn down too. I would remove your engine and realign the pegs.

Thanks. Got it lined up and turning over now. But my rear pegs aren't on the box. Am I missing something there? Have to customize your own?

Did you switch the brackets around. I switched mine and my pegs stuck out. Also had to drill a hole for the screw to close it.

Received today my nb48, hope gonna start build it soon

Oh man have fun!

Question, im going to be running the xp digital 1015 servos is that enough torque for the nitro buggy steering or should i go to a hw servo with a faster speed and more torque.

That'll be ok Joe, specs look fine. PERSONALLY I run Futaba S9352HV servos in everything but I've used servos with similar specs I just like a Quicker and faster feel. (some people don't like the extra speed....so personal preference)

Some interesting pics

Chassis as is:




Someone asked about batt tray size. Reedy hump pack fits well this way...

...and this way:


More unboxing pics for those who likes that stuff (too lazy to make desc)

Body lexan is way too thin, esp. compared to my PL Bulldog body for ebuggy. How about FTW XB9 body, any difference?
