The lipo strap was made out of piece of carbon i had lying around,nothing fancy and enough to do the job.

Silverstone was good and the car went very,i think it was well above what Andy was expecting as up until yesterday morning he hadn't driven the car,qualified much higher than he had previously with his c4.1 and was so much easier to drive in his opinion,alot more to come from the car as apart from yesterday all the car has been raced on is low grip astro outdoors,the pace of the car on high grip is night and day different to a std mid motor and there is now very little to choose between them on low grip in my opinion

I think you can trim the unused drive cup to fit a longer servo..

If you maybe could look at the XB4 or yokomo mr2 conversion that would be great.
Maybe even something with the 210 front/ ? rear

Yokomo 4wd/2wd chassis conversion is on the list and should be all sorted in the new year,i have had a look at the xray and as yet not top of my list there are ideas floating around at the minute.

If you follow our facebook link on the first page you will see we have 2 durango versions already out,firstly is the Cobra 4210 which is a full durango conversion,we also have a B410 version using the 410 drivetrain and B4 front end,both versions are going well in testing and showing good promise

Thanks!

Would you need a topdeck with the durango rear? OR could you do some delrin/CF/alu rails?
Would the yoko conversion use the yokomo front and rear?

The durango versions have been run with no top deck and using the correct alloy there are no bending issues and we have abuse tested the chassis,we also have a weight that bolts to the chassis that acts as rail but i found the car is not as good in the wet with the rail fitted.

The yokomo will be full yokomo front and rear,obviouysly once we have the first car out and the template made then you could have any front end you wanted really

We have a Tamiya 511/201 that uses saddles,the belt drive cars seem better that way,i dont see a saddle/shaft drive on my list of things to try,for that just take the front diff out of your 4wd.

I have to say that for my first outing with the car it ran faultlessly all day. It had the drive of a 4wd but with a touch of under-steer. Seen as I didn't alter the set up all day I am fairly sure that I will be able to make it go quicker next time. The amount of speed that you can carry through the corners with these cars is scary.

I found part LOSA4222 for the XXX CR.
Is this the right one?
Unfortunately it looks no more available in the UK.
Suggestions?

I would say that a call to DMS racing and you may find he will have the wing mounts,he still carries a good supply of older losi parts,ebay i have seen them come up on there.

You can use ansmann/teamc,kyosho,durango,tamiya mounts by drilling an extra hole in the tower
