Interesting steering servo arrangement - gives more space for the receiver pack by the looks of it

I agree its totally diffrent to the new cars out at the moment I cant wait to see the club drivers race the D8 at that will give a true reflection of how good they actually are  Roll Eyes

i agree, but the weight looks nicely moved. with the steering that far forward and with the receiver pack so close behind it. i know a few guys running the rc8 have moved the battery forward too try and shift some of the weight thast way. but it does look remarkably uncomplicated. no wacky disk setups. no active caster. back too basics.

My guess is this car is made simplistic so that any driver can race it and enjoy it with out having to have a degree in rc car setups  Cheesy
