now that's how i like these cars clean simple no shelf queens have you got any vids then for us all to enjoy
i do like these on-road cars but is a pity that here where i live there's not many places to go and thrash them to hell i used to have a full alloy on-road fg bmw man when i got that it scared me a bit lol the speed of the thing well it just took of and that had a 23cc zen with the stock tuning pipe from fg anyway i ended up swapping it for a fg baja and that's gone to the fs took its place

I've got the throttle governed to 2/3- 3/4, but ya, she has some power! when my fs metal gear set arrives from rcinnovations i'll be trialing swapping the main spur gear off the clutch bell with the next, so instead of standard 30t-33t, i'll run higher 33t- 30t, see how that goes, apparently makes them more controllable, understandably, and of course more top end speed... not game to try it with the plastic gears lol Also i'll be lifting her up a notch so i can soften the shocks, awaiting on delivery of MCD front and rear sway bars from PSR, then tweak the suspension... i tried camber but wont run straight, 0 camber runs good, but for handling i have no idea on toe in settings for AWD, i'll experiment... what i really need is some competition to play with ;D

hoppy, just have a peak at ya car and noticed you rigged a servo to hit the engine kill, is that servo linked to the fail safe? nice work, nah, just activated by the third tx channel... i like the idea of being able to remote kill the motor heh heh... set up on "grip button c" on my jr xr3... press the button once the servo turns to hit the ignition kill switch, press again and the servo swings away to it's original position. works a treat this servo uses the space of the second steering servo bay... eventually i'll be installing another hitec steering servo (not really nesessary for the onroad, but too much play in the drag link so i have 3-4mm freeplay at the right hand front wheel, hoping a second servo will aleviate this) but by then i'll have fabricated another ally servo tray so i'll accomodate this 3rd channel servo ;D

Great looking ride you got there. Nice innerbody work, too. The second servo will eliminate most of the play in the steering. Is your car converted to 4WD now and in the video, as I think you mentioned it was originally a 2WD? If the Zen 270 is capable of "right foot" cornering a 4WD even on hard surfaces, then I can't wait to get one

the zen27 is great!!! you have to use the casing from the fs engine for it to mount and of course grind off some of the alu to make way for the center shaft
