    Glad i could help.

    I need to order some pinions as well. I am going to be running the stock plastic one with the mamba, don't know how well it will hold up.

    I have never had a problem getting my stock pinion off my stock motor. Use a flathead to pry it up

    It doesnt have a screw to tighten it thought so how would you put it on new motor?

    The things hanging off the back are homemade body clip pulls - much less fiddly than those little black clips that come stock.

    Helistyle - it is a fullforce chassis. Glad you like the look of the shell - I'm well chuffed with it. Bit of a tight fit with the mamba cooling guard out the back. I'll let you know how I get on with the smaller pinions and Elite batteries.

    It looks cool, well done.
    Were did you get the motor from neiloid?
    they are so hard to come by here without importing and when you do find them over here, they are so expensive.
    I got mine from b-p-p.com. Amazing customer service. It went missing and they shipped out another, no questions.

    I wouldn't use super glue. Get a set of alloy pinions, the wait wont be that long, even if you get them from the US (Liquid RC or The Toyz, for example) and it'll be worth it to have a bit of variety, super glue sounds a little too permanent.

    Hope this helps.

    All i can say is wow.

    I have already scratched the hell out of my new shell and chassis on one bat pack.
    I ended up with the mamba 8000, as they sent the wrong one, a little sad, so will have to gear it down a bit from stock.
    I have already had a few breaks. Also the stock slipper cannot handle a mamba 8000, at all.

    I am really please with the chassis, it has stopped it popping wheelies unless its on carpet. Which means it screams away at start up.

    I would also like to thank castle for an amazing set up, this thing does not cog at all, amazing considering its the 8000 on a 6-cell pack. On that note thanks to cheap bat packs.com for the great elite packs, they last for ages.

    Yeah it does if you look on their site it says it accepts the standard size, which is the same size as the hs-55.

    Also, ready to run weight of my mini-t is 650g.

    I'm having a little bit of a problem with my new receiver(Airtronics 2ch Super Micro Receiver 75Mhz AM w/o Crystal) its about the tenth one in this page the problem is that the crystal i have that goes with the radio i had that, i thought was going to work with it apparently doesn't. So my question is what crystal set would work with this receiver, or will i have to get a different receiver all together
