I read on RCTech forum, instead of puting brass bits on the chassis, they're trying configurations with the Xcelorin new 96mm lipo stick...

With regard to the availability date, no one either here in Horizon EU or in TLR or Horizon US want there to be a delay any more than any racer / prospective owner. Sadly though, at this time, it does seem as if the initial expected availability date has slipped for whatever reason(s). Before anyone asks - No, I don't know why - we're passengers in all this as well. As racers ourselves, we understand why people would like to get body shells in advance and we will do what we can to achieve this - but realistically, until the shipping advice is received and we know what is en route to us, we're none the wiser than you all. Rest assured, there's a whole heap of people trying to do all they can to bring this car to market as soon as possible. No one is getting any kicks out of having to recognise and accept that clearly not everything has gone to plan. We'll continue to keep our retailers as up to date with the situation as we know it. |

Has any of the team drivers got any pictures of the car with the speedo installed infront of lipos ? possibly using a low profile servo.

http://www.oople.com/forums/showpost...&postcount=196 The length of the 96mm battery is equivocal to 2 saddles placed side-by-side so the forward ESC install would work for a saddle install in the mid car. Hope this helps. Andy |

A release date wasn't given, it just said late february and now it's late march. A lot of companies have moved release dates back and not just in the R.C world, Look at GT5 on the playstation I know everyone want's the latest and greatest right now but we will all have to wait.

As long as it's ready for the start of the outdoor season I'll be happy (May for us over here). Obviously the main work is done they are just having to fart round with the little details and/or round out any issues the latest testing has thrown up. I'm confident that they have the weight of a large machine behind them and can afford to put out a decent, well sorted kit from the off.

Cheers for that, very useful. Did the battery stay in position ok in the forward position. Can the second velcro strap be installed towards the front of the forward placed batery if using saddles as opposed to the one piece battery? If not I'm sure a bit of head scratching will find a way! Chris

The battery stayed in position without any trouble with just the single velcro strap. The body shell stops it from lifting upwards at the front.
Don't forget that you're only trying to restrain just over 200g with the short LiPo. I'm not quite sure if I understand you correctly about using saddles? If you are using saddles then you will need to use the two velcro straps - but the battery only fits in the rearward configuration with the saddles because the width of the chassis narrows as you move forward and the saddle would be too wide. You could always turn the front saddle lengthwise but you'd be reducing the RC space even more. The object of the exercise for me was to determine how best I could package the ESC and short stick LiPo whilst keeping the wires short, having enough headroom for the ESC (the Castle is quite tall with the fan shroud on) and simply just seeing what looked neat. TBH, I'm not sure what configuration I'll end up with - some days I love the idea of short motor wires and other days I like it with the battery rearward. Decisions decisions.... HTH |

Does anybody know anything about the esc in the pictures from Losi and when or if it will be released?

The ESC in the pictures is a standard Xcelorin unit with a different heatsink (
LOSB9352) on it. Hope that helps. |

Hmm.
Will a regular length lipo fit in the midmotor configuration with a low profile servo? Looks like it nearly can
