Heyup Graham.

Same as me then for next year, X6 & X10. I only ran my X6 once at the end of last years outdoors, but it was brilliant around Batley, so i'm looking forward to running it in 2007.

Are you putting a brushless in the X6 ?

Anyhting new on the X10, front, or is the car the same as last year ?

Hi Andy,

I should have brushless in the X-6 before the first regional/national, not sure which one yet though.

Nothing new as yet on the X-10 front, but you never know whats round the corner

Default Brushless

Heyup graham.

Make sure you post some pictures if you 'squeeze' a brushless in, would be interested to see what fits.

Andy.

Good skills Shilly,

I believe both the Novak and LRP system will fit, The LRP one with just the heatsink no probs, the novak with the fan requires more effort but it defo will fit.

Of course there will be the smaller Tekin unit, when it comes out

How come you're not doing any indoors?

I'll soon have a Novak Brushless, so I will post pictures once fitted.

I know Liam has the Novak in his X-6, his photos are in here somewhere.

Hi I just finished my X6, pics later today I hope, I e-mailed chazz on how I fit my GTB, I think he liked it since he put it on his site.

http://www.2wdrc.com/tech_GTB.htm







Also made some room for lexan shields for the underside of the tranmission. Since I do NOT want to see tranny internals, like a diff gear, on a finished car. Other than that, everything went well together.

Heyup Dan.

No indoors for me this year, just being too busy with work. I don't like turning stuff down !

Hopefully will do the SuperCup. Can't wait for the outdoors again though.

Might squeeze in a brushless for the SuperCup. Will the tekin unit work with the current range of LRP / Nosram / Novak motors ? If so I might wait as i've got a spare Novak Brushless motor.

Andy.

OK, here's an update. Progress is a little slow for a few reasons.
