Good to hear
@mister_uk . I picked up the CF RTR version last week. Looking forward to seeing it in person.
These are better for high speed i think, because the special center driveshaft, also adjustable motormount and other great stuff.
I will drive mine att couple rough surfaces also, so carbon will not work for me sadly.
My plans is drive it with rubber tyres at one rough parking lot. at 2s only, near my house
Drift it with drift wheels on 2s at fine tarmac 5minutes from my house with 1/1
There i will also run it with foam wheels on 3s
I will not do speedruns at all., these are too smal and light weight.
I have calculate top speed 64mph with Foams on 3s. This is fast enough for me with this little car.
My combo is 120amp and 3660 motor 4s ready. I have 4s, i think this can be too dangerous.
I have big 120a combo only because i want drive it very cool at hot summerdays. 3s it will barely be warm because it is a 4s combo
I'm waiting for Porsche Gulf sticker sheet now i ordered. Then i will take Pictures of everything, with Foams.
My 6s Long chassis GT 1/8 360mm i will do some more maybe about 75mph
65mph with normal pinon, about 75mph with couple extra tooth pinion and high speed high voltage cooling fans .

I did not hurry with this, i have done everything with extra care. With Dumbo receiver i will have 300m range.
I will use same 6s i have to my Cars, got two of these. I will have 2pc 6s at each side in parallel, or i can also have one in center.
My friend did print some nice special adjustable battery trays with his 3d printer to my boat. I can move them 4inches, to find perfect balance
so i can drive it fast. I just need loose 2pc 4mm bolts in evey tray and tighten were i want them to sit after adjust them front or back.
He did very smart design with these.
I need buy black 17mm wheelnuts, i dont like these shiny silver to black wheels.
Happy weekend all
