Cat K1

[markw]

Is there any videos of the k1 going round a track?

[TARTMAN]

Picked mine up today from Apex Models.

Nearly built, just the shocks and few little bits to go.

Super car and fantastic quality. Love it already.

Pleased Schumacher are finally including pots of moly/diff greece instead of the silly little bags. 10/10 for that!

Bit of an odd question, could anyone tell me if an 80mm servo lead would be long enough to run in the K1?

[matdodd]

It should be fine dependent on how/where you install the rx

[DeMogoobra]

Wish list before the outdoor season. An SVR2 with the same black as K1 and shocks. Carbon fibre chassis and Sv2 driveshafts. Please Schumacher!!! For us that race on slippery dirt all summer long

This car simply looks amazing. But one thing comes to my mind: with the motor and servo mounted on the left, how well is the car balanced left to right? I have the impression it might be quite a bit heavier on the left. What do you think?

1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 hex wrenches

Got to say this car builds up so nice and easy. X And no more middle belt idle gears to mess with. It should spool up quicker without the extra drag of the 3rd belt and gears.

Very nice and Alloy Yoke .................

[TARTMAN]

It fits well. not as much room as i thought, but still more than the SX3.....

Would have prefered the servo the other side, meaning very short motor wires and even neater. But I am sure schuey have there reasons....

[DeMogoobra]

Tartman, if you are looking for neat you can build yourself one of these

RX, PT and capacitor inside that thing. Silly invention but hey, thats me

Hi,
Building the front and rear shocks,its says in the manual that they are both the same length from ball end to bottom of shock body..27.25mm..but to get this on the front shocks the ball end is not screwed in very much ,is this right?

[Cockerill]

The front length should read 22.25mm

[simon]

Ah..great thank you..in the manual its 27.25......any other tips!!??

Thanks for your help...
