LiPo - Saddles

Benh · #1 03-03-2009

Focusing on the saddles as these appear to be the most difficult to find.

I am after (dimension issue): -

1 x Pack of DS4635 - Demon Saddle LiPo
1 x Pack of RO5213 - Robitronic Saddle LiPo
1 x Pack of RO5214 - Robitronic Saddle LiPo
1 x Pack of YT90071 - Yuntong Saddle LiPo

Does anyone know : -

Retail outlets and/or price for any of the above. Expected date of availability etc

If you're a retailer that is due to take stock, please pop a link below for me and others in my shoes. Club champs start in a couple of weeks and need to get the cars up and running.

Many thanks

Well guys "Demon" will be the only place to find the Demon ones they do themselves, but none of the other three have a current official UK importer "as far as I know" so these may be fairly tricky to locate.

Some of the "better known" brands will be easier to find when they arrive in to the UK such as Reedy, LRP, Corally, Trakpower and of course our very own VAMPIRE saddles too (which are due to us in approx two weeks or just before hopefully)

Hi Darren,

that's good to know.

The reason I have listed the above was purely for their Width dimensions. They are 45mm or under. (Secondly, the have no protruding wires)

With these I feel I can drop a set straight into the S4 with no buggering about.

Are the dimensions for the Vampires exactly as stated on on the BRCA sheet? I know Trakpower are 47mm stated, but they tend to come in slightly under. If you have a set of Vampires at 45mm wide, i'll bite your hand off. Vampire......bite.......i'll get my coat.
