typically front cable s get a 2nd servo to drive them.

do i need to get a new tray cause i have large servo in middle and recver box on one side and throttle and brake servo on other:helpsmilie:

Nope it can be used and the RX box be relocated like on the steering servo with Velcro. Eventually you will want to get the alloy tray for less twisting.

Velcro, will that really hold the RX-box in place? I'm just a bit curious.

Velcro might work .. but if your running the MT-5 or MB pro with the TVP support posts .. just Zip tie it inbetween them .
or buy a RX box relocating bracket .

I'm running Spektrum so the antenna does not come out of the body. The Velcro has never failed me - yet. A tag line can also be used if worried. I'm not too fragile with my models. This is a small test to what the Velcro goes through. My sons 1st test at the hill with our new Baja and we also ran that front brake setup with Velcro. http://media.putfile.com/Gravel-Fun

I used a couple tank mount posts from a nitro rc. (or wing braces from an 8th scale buggy. not sure which) I screwed the posts onto the battery strap then screw the rx box down to those. cheap easy fix.
