Appreciate no one in their right mind would have experience of this but does anyone know what parts if any (other than chassis plate and battery nest) would be needed to convert a 2S saddle chassis Supastox to a 1S version? It's a long story so don't ask why I need to, I just do :p

As far as I know, you'll need:

U3957 Chassis 4 Cell
U3958 Battery nest 4 cell
5x M3x10mm CS + M3 Washer and M3 nyloc nut
2x Velcro Hook 170mm
2x Velcro Loop 140mm

Everything else is the same. I've got the 1S/4 cell version and looked at what I might need to go 6cell/2S.

Thats what I thought so I got the battery nest in the hope that it would sit on the 2 cell chassis (it doesn't, all the fixings are in the wrong place) but when I laid it on the chassis both the outer radius arms toe in quite a bit. So I didn't know if the pod base was narrower too but as its not listed in a 1S and 2S version then I guess it must just be me looking at it wrong. If you want to swap parts PM me by the way. Since I built it my 2S version has been run once. On carpet. For less than 1 minute (to check the steering trim) so its not exactly been hammered :lol:

Cheers, i'm going to run my 4 cell version for the first time on saturday. I may look at using the smaller hardcase 2S cells that go into the mini 8ights, which fit on the 4cell chassis, but still undicided. I may go 1S lipo also yet?

Looking at the instructions, the side link arms for the rear pod are in the wider hole position on the 6cell version, and on the inner screw holes for the 4cell version. I think its the same part.
I've been using this for reference:http://www.racing-cars.com/images/Technical_Info/Schumacher/Current%20Cars/SupaStox/Instruction%20Manual/SupaStox_Manual.pdf
which has the 6cell/2S addition at the back.

Instructions. Yeah, I should have looked at them! When I looked from above I couldn't see the inner holes on the pod base :blush:

Will order the 1S chassis tomorrow.
