Default CT4s Chassis TOTALED!

Hi, i am new to this forum and i want to talk about my CEN CT4s. My CT4s chassis is totalled big time because i am having problem with the controller and receiver, they suck ass. That how my roller got big damage because of the lost contact with receiver and controller. So..... is there roller kit that i can buy without motor? My motor still run perfect, but need a new chassis kit or...... do you think i can buy other brand of roller and have the CT4s's motor install on other brand of roller?

Thanks, D.

CEN has the CT4R kit. It can be found here as well as the parts to fix yours,

On a car that does 70+mph you really should be using a failsafe and a throttle retun spring.

Sorry for your problems but first rule of R/C.... Failsafe.... If you had on of these we would not be reading this post right now... The Original cen radios were not of the best quality, but Cen has offered a replacement program to swap for an Airtronics mx-3... Much better fm... Not sure if they still do this, but call them and see....

yea, i feel for u man, but a failsafe is a must - they should come as standard on all rc cars in my opinion. i hope noone was hurt, a 70mph rc car will easily brake legs, or worse if it gets airborne...

ebay is the way to get u back on the road as cheaply as possible.

I run the venom failsafe and it has saved my truck on several occasions... works very well and setup is easy... I run a hs645mg hitech servo in all my cars and trucks as well as my planes... never had a problem with them... cheap and super strong...

Also i am having some proble with the stock pull start, the spring inside the pull start lose the force everytime i easy pull it. So i found Associated Starting Set AE .15 pull starter on towerhobbies and want to ask before purchase it. Will this fit the ct4s?

make sure that the backplate is the same.. When I had the cen engine I replaced mine with either associated or duratrax.. can't remember which... It was exactly the same.......This one looks different....
