I have old 511 body which fits it perfectly. I'm gonna try b44.2 phantom for it. The included sidepods are cut out from 511 undertray and they're attached on the topside. The old undertray holes align with new lower deck. Many bodies should fit dependending of the size of electronics.

Crazy nice!
Did you put some extra weight under the lipo?? Is it out of box or just your own? |

The weights are included in the kit. Everything is "stock" as instructed in the manual. As an alternative, I suppose you could put some weight in the middle where you see 2 empty holes between the batteries.

They were showing 4 in stock when I placed my order, which had gone down to 0 earlier today, but they are now showing 4 in stock again, but at the slightly higher price of $429.90 (still a great price though, the kit is $480 + shipping at Stellamodels).

nice to see a non cab forward body for a change
is that a normal pin axle setup on the rear, and hex b44 size on the front, as per previous trf 4wd's? |

I dont recall the trf511 to being this cheap. This car is a bargain!

For the rear theres pin and 12mm hex parts included in the kit. front is smaller old style hex. I changed it to 12mm too.

The motor is also moved inward. So there's more room about 8mm in that direction. The sensor wire doesn't rub against the body anymore. If the servo arm rubs against the body, i can reverse the servo with a shorter arm. (in the manual a short servo was fitted other way around and standard was fitted like i did) Btw, did you try b44 phantom with 511 undertray? |

Also if you get a chance to weight it.... might be nice to see if the car needs to go on a diet

The alu plate is quite narrow, so that doesn't even add that much weight if you ask me. +/- 50g? The gear diffs may well prove lighter than the ball diffs (by about 5-10g a piece?) and the big bores will be heavier (about 20-30g in total?).

Nice paint work! Who's talent is responsible?

Stock racing on the other hand, i.e. 17.5t as we do in Aus, being light can help acceleration with tall gearing. The 503 and the 201 are clearly designed for high powered motors considering the drive ratios that come standard. Some one buy my FF01's so I can afford one of these beauties!

My car weights 1732g with 511 body in driving condition and with the extra 50g weights. Batteries we're 260g.. other electronics i dont know (hobbywing 120A xerun and savox 1257 servo ko propo tiny receiver).. So under 1700 without the extra weight.. Gear diffs must weight more than ball diff, they're filled with fluid after all.. But around 1700g is quite typical these days or actually on the lighter side? Also i have a feeling, i'm gonna need those extra weights for low-medium traction.
The lower deck feels very light. Its only 2mm thick compared to 201xr which is 3mm. |
