A little bit of an update (and a few more photos). The chassis is now built and the motor (hobbywing 21.5t sensored stock motor), servo (trackstar TS-400MG) and receiver are installed, I just need to solder the motor to the esc (a speed passion reventon stock club race esc) and I'm thinking of changing the battery connection so it just plugs right into the battery, rather than using deans connector and lead to try and save a little bit of weight (only a few grams, but I guess it all adds up).
I'll hopefully manage to get a few of the new GT upgrades when they become available, they seem to be trickling into schumacher at the min.
I ended up choosing the protoform pfm-12 body, which was a bit of a pain to get to fit reasonably okay, but it looks okay after 2 attempts to get it right! It also meant modifying the rear bumper a little so it fitted behind the body. While i'm on the subject of the rear bumper, what are the thoughts on the rear diffuser?
Thanks,
Oliver
