Re: RC10 FF
+1 especially about the month you enter BOTM 

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Re: RC10 FF
Good points all and silly of me to think you didn't do 100% of your homework
Did not know the b44 is narrower than the tub.
I think it will all work out nicely.
Kind of thinking something like a b44 wing mount for the rear body posts. Actually looking closer, coxbros has a great suggestion of something like an 834b hoop between the inner shock mount brackets

Re: RC10 FF
Yup, you're right, it fits in with the wing in place. That gets my vote, but I still wouldn't mind seeing the Lazer ZX body, just for fun.

Wow. Erik..i see where your vision came from...i never knew these were existed or were created.sandkil wrote: ↑Fri Jan 22, 2021 8:03 amMy thought is to leave it as it is now.adam lancia wrote: ↑Fri Jan 22, 2021 5:28 am Are you leaving the rear section of the body intact or chopping it off flush with the rear of the chassis?
Something similar to the HPI-Koga FF, but the Mirage is way longer than the Ultima body.
Your execution is exceptional and amazing. Now i cant wait to see the end result!
As always, Great work man!!!

Re: RC10 FF
Electronics all done. Some minor tweaks to be done adjusting the ESC.
Reedy Sonic 540 3M 13.5.
Novak Edge 2S ESC.
Savöx SC-1251MG servo.
LRP HV Ultra LCG Modified 4000 mAh shorty pack.
Futaba R204GF-E 2.4Ghz receiver in Novak NER3-FM housing
Still have to do rear body posts. I have some Kyosho OTW 9 posts that hopefully will work.
And then it's the wing mounts and wire that need to be addressed. After that its ready for paint..

Re: RC10 FF
I know we can all see the NER-3FM but I don't see the antenna, did you gut it and use a 2.4gHz receiver in there?

Re: RC10 FF
Yes I forgot to mention that it is a Futaba R204GF-E receiver in the Novak NER3-FM housing. The Novak housing was cut around the crystal so I went ahead and used it on this build.adam lancia wrote: ↑Thu Jan 28, 2021 5:35 am I know we can all see the NER-3FM but I don't see the antenna, did you gut it and use a 2.4gHz receiver in there?

Re: RC10 FF
No offense to anyone else, but if anyone else gets votes when this thing is entered then we will know the election is rigged!

Re: RC10 FF
He's got my vote when entered!!!
Exactly! Where is the factory instruction manual and box?

Hey Erik, is that a short profile steering servo?

Re: RC10 FF

Box and instructions... I wish I could manage that. It would have been cool.
Yes it is a low profile servo.. the only thing that fit in that small space between battery cup and pan
