Status: offline 		Hi all,
just ordered me a H.Cat WK-7 chassis and a axle servo mount. Mogul is going to have his battery up front above the servo and the rear is going to be weighted down to get some equalization. It will be a droop suspension, shocks filled with Royal Purple 5W-30 motor oil and x-mod springs.Not sure about the chassis and lexan color yet.
I'll post pics when I get the chassis.

It will be a droop suspension,


When will people learn........droop is a function of suspension, not a type of suspension Just a pet peeve of mine I love that chassis, it looks great. Is that the stock servo in there? It doesn't turn very well.......I saw a mod somewhere on how to get more turning out of the axle, Ill let you know if I see it again.

Status: offline 		I've got a Tower Pro 995MG which is more than enough for me. My servo will be axle mounted so hopefully that will give better turning, I never could get the turnbuckle type linkage the right length to give me the same steering both ways.

Status: offline 		The mod I saw was to fix the right angle link to give you equal steering both ways.

Are you going to do a standard axle mount servo or a BTA setup? What are you going to use to mount it?

Axle Mounted servo, it's 2 plates 1 is the axle mount the other is servo/upper link mount.
