The CRP front stub axels are so cheap & easy to do.

I have used these on all of my Ultima runners.

Use any Tamiya or Traxxas wheels . The rear is a standard hex so the choice is really good.

Thanks for the info guys
thanks for the link as well Mark

I'm thinking of buying an Ultima Pro myself, but it needs a new top radio plate (UM-38 I think) but I hear they're very rare. Where would I find one? I emailed Fibre Lyte about it and they said they haven't done any Ultima parts but if I supply the parts they should be able to do them if they're flat.

Trouble is, the radio plate is broken at the front and the piece broken off is missing. If I can get something sorted out with the radio plate, say an accurate template I'll probably get the chassis and shock towers done as well.

Is there anyone else out there that sells replacent radio plates for the Ultima Pro?

The top deck is flat so it would be easy to make a replica. Even I could do it as I have plates with the correct looking sandwich material (2mm)

The "only" problem is:
I don't have the part as a blueprint
I don't have a place to work now when it's cold outside (damn Scandinavia)

Example of what I've made in carbon fiber:

Yea that's the problem, finding a radio plate to use as a template. Maybe someone that has one could help out? They'd be doing a good service for other Ultima Pro owners.
