Yes you still need a startershaft for the pull start.

I'm running a Picco .12 which will be modded by www.tntmods.com very soon.

Jag09, look at the pics on page 33 of my Jato, is that what you want to do with the top plate?

That can work but your chassis will flex a lot more. The stock chassis already flexes enough as it is. I would only recommend you to do this if you have the optional silver chassis. You can use a t-maxx throttle servo mount for the throttle servo, any buggy gas tank post for the tank, hack out the receiver box from the top plate and just mount it directly to the chassis from the bottom, get an antenna mount and put it on top of the receiver box, and finally use some traxxas nitro 4-tec steering servo mounts to mount the steering servo.

any tank that would fit in the space left over... also you may want to make some supports like buggies and truggies use... from the shock tower or bulks to the chassis to help control the flex.

I just have problems with people not being honest.....Did you tell them that you were embarrassed that you got caught lying? I'm also sure if RCU mods check my post history they'll find that I've been very helpful in these forums and very active.

I can't help but wonder why you would report this because you didn't say he was wrong! If what he said is the truth than I don't call that bashing! I would think that showing that he was wrong would be better than running to tell on him! Just my 2 cents.

LOL, the part that was in the other thread has been deleted by a moderator. Is it their job to cover up for someones dishonesty too? I can see a moderator deleting "bashing" "flaming" swearing" "religion" "politics' and stuff like that. I've run my own forum on my site for 6 years now and I've dealt with fairly dangerous types (war gamers, many adults from all over the world) and I used to thrive on exposing liars and cheaters. I never once deleted a post from anyone that was truthful. I believe as a Disabled Combat Veteran(Honor is a major thing in my life) that people that lie need to be exposed so they think twice about doing it again and they don't take advantage of anybody if they try selling them something and be dishonest. Covering it up is very questionable to me. I know how to use the "Prt/Scr" key and take screen shots of all the things I feel may be deleted, so I have them anyway.

The whole page in the Official Jammin X1CRT thread, that this quote from CRT2 was on is gone! Thats the thread that I found out he didn't have a CRT yet.
"Oh BTW Bill Plude (lol) i have a picco here and it will be in my CRT its a way of speech. I wish some people would use common since"
