The radio tray doesn't have a cut-out for a 3rd servo for the front brakes. You can run them off the throttle and rear brake but I've always found a 3rd servo works better. You can cut it to fit a servo or mount the servo on it's side and bolt it up. Keep in mind you need to move the RX box when you do this as well.

I'm just gonna sell it.
 
Well I ran it today for the first time. Once i heated up the tires it hooked. But I wanna change the gears. I feel like its asking for more.Was gonna get a two speed but cant do it right now. Right now its 16/48. What gear ratio should I go to for the best single speed setup?
 
you are basically running the same setup as the trucks. same tires. 20/44 is stock gearing for them. you'll need a different spur carrier as well.
 
Look out for my new thread soon. Either this weekend or Monday the latest. I finally made it my own. Changed it all up. Ill show the before and after pics of my first round of mods.
 
Heres another teaser. (cell phone pic) Its all done. I wrapped the wing in Carbon Fiber vynl. Just wanna take some pics, I'll do that tomorrow @ Flyod.

Looks sweet mate..........:):):)

Do your wheels not hit the arches when the shocks are under load?
 
Kause that beetle body looks insanely cool.

I love the color job. Did you do that yourself or did you get someone to do it?

Thanks guys.

I haven't ran it yet so I don't know about the wheels hitting the fenders. Ill fnd out tomorrow. As far as the paint job I did it with tamyia spray cans. The decals are interal. Just put them on and spray over. Its my second set. This guy sells them on ebay. He also does custom work. I don't know if you can see in the pic but my name is above both windows in script. He charges good prices. If u want custom work just email him. His name is jason. If I remember correctly his ebay user Id is discountdecals.

Very nice job!

You can also get a big sticker sheet at motorcycle shops with Monster Energy decals. $15-$20 gets you a large sheet. They are pretty durable too.
