Default Cyclone S Tips

I have a Hot Bodies Cyclone S coming and I was wondering what hopups/mods/adjustments you guys would recommend.

I ordered the MIPs on HotBodies Garage sale as well. I have a EZrun 35amp 4300kv system and a Futaba low profile servo for it.

Let me hear your brains.

I have 3racing spool for it, apart from that it's pretty stock and runs great on ezrun 4300 motor

Take a file and Open up the hole in the bottom of the chassis around the spur gear, and on the center brace at the top of the spur gear to help clear the bigger sizes of spurs. I had to run a 111T 64P spur to get my XE-run motor to mesh the pinion/spur gears, I was looking for tight gearing, to make sure I had tons of traction breaking power. After your first post, I went to the garage sale and ordered two sets of CVD's for mine too.

I also cut a hole through the motor guard, because of the sensor wire for the motor... Not real thrilled with that idea..
