because it won't fit in with me cells that I have, I don't realy want to have specific packs of batteries to only use with the car, I have buggies and a saloon that all share the same cell layout, so of it goes, unfortunately. Plus I just don't have the time to make the chassis fit the cells either :-(

It's a shame, I've enjoyed our discussions on the Dark Impact.

Hey Guys,

No reason why this saddle pack 4400mah lipo wont fit, you will need to make the loop wire slightly longer and even the out the top option you can choose may be better, you may also need a 2mm spacer under your battery posts. Maybe ask if they can make the loop wire couple inches longer before they send you one.

I have been thinking of purchasing one myself for my KMRC ZX-5 and KMRC Keen Hawk but dont have the spare funds at this stage so it will have to wait.

Anyway here is the link,

Hope this helps

Hope not to waste your time....

Default km coversion

i wonder if anyone has tried to fit trf501 suspension arms onto the kit yet since it sounds like they would bolt up then you could use the white dish wheels

Have you bought the DF03 conversion kit from KM?
I am glad to know the answer if you got it
I mean to fit the TRF501 in DIK-100.

Hey Raven,

Seems like you know a lot about the KM conversion kit.
Actually I want to take an order within this weekend.
Can you show me some photo of your DF-03?
And can you list out the adv. and disadv. of it by your OWN EXPERIENCE?
I don't think the advertisment is really 100% true...
Waiting for your opinion....

Sero
