New LiPo forward link mount, moving the LiPo forwards 5mm makes a big difference to the driveability.

ok ran the eclipse with the new aluminium chassis and the forward battery mount. Car was super easy to drive and very fast. I was impressed, and received some great comments from all of the guys that looked at it.

I might be in the market for an Eclipse in the next couple of weeks. If anyone has one that they want to get rid of please let me know.
Thanks
