Just finishing off my build. Hit a small snag with the electronics fitment.
Will I regret grinding off the extra holes at the front of the side guards, just behind the servo? Can't see any use for them in the kit but is there an option to use them for something? Grinding will give me precious extra millimetres of space...
The other thing is that "square" LiPo packs don't fit well. Firstly, they won't drop in place because of the rear brace being in the way. Secondly, the battery strap obscures the plugs and you would have to remove quite a lot of material to access them. So this pack will have to go back and be replaced by a pair of saddles - I was trying to avoid having extra wires in the car but it hasn't worked out!
At least the wires from the ESC are the same length as for my old B4, should make swapping over to the "spare" car a bit easier.
