Default Hollow Carbon Fiber Antenna

I just happened to look at some old carbon fiber rod I had from my heli stuff. It was the same size as my rollover antenna and hollow like the old paragon ones. I don't remember what I paid for the rod but it wasn't that much. I cut it to size and it looks nice and neat.

it will be rear tire diameter x 3.14 then divide that by your final drive(spur/pinion)= roll out.there is no gear reduction on a 1/12th so it is a 1 to 1 ratio.

i will be doing the final testing on the new car this weekend.so far i am extremely happy with the performance.i made the final changes for this weekends testing.once it is proven i will be going straight into production and then working on the full car.the full car will be mostly machined parts which means accuracy.i was thinking of buying the components OEM but decided to go the extra mile by making my own axle/diff,majority of the front end components,and some of the other odds and ends.

protc3- I know this maybe abit premature, but I was wondering what the estimated cost would be on the full kit? I am looking to add to my 12th scale collection that I have.

Also to any of the 12th scale gurus that have the AH12 (Hara Hammer) what would be a geral setup on the the car for stock? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the AH12 and it handle pretty good but it always felt lazy, the best set up that I did to the AH12 was taking out the front end and the rear axle out and putting those parts on the BMI DB12 kit

I would, but I plan on using it in Region 9 regionals in October. I let a friend barrow it last year while I ran the Hyperform 12th, and got my butt handed to me by it at the stock regionals. I was going to originally run it but he wantd to run so I let him borrow it. Not this year. I am going to use it.

I think the standard T-Fource kit shock is an Associated VCS. The Team T-Fource comes with the red Durashock which you can find on CRC's site;

Yang, you had me at the TSC, but you are now going to be on my track. So you might want to be ready to get Hammered on Sat., and watch out for me going hyperspace with the Hyperform 12 on Sun. Hope to see you guys before then.

Let me or P2 know that way we can have enough guys run and if you plan on running touring as well. Touring is having low turnouts, but has reamin steady with a minimal needed to race.
