I have to say that looks the biz! A clear chassis will show the scratches pretty easily, do you plan on painting it at all? I'm rebuilding my sss, love the way these torsion chassis conform to the crawl |

It wasn't the voltage in any way shape or form.. its a 7.4v servo and some guys run 7.4v servos straight off of 2s batteries.. I lean towards epa's bein set wrong.. maybe how it was wired.. |

| Re: mhflies sportsman build Im with troy on that... contact Hitec and see what they can do for you. That always sucks when a servo dies!

That chassis material is probably Lexan. If you decide to paint it, be sure it says safe for Lexan on the can. The solvents in most regular spray paints will cause Lexan to craze and torsion will turn to Snap! Cleaners with chemicals like ammonia will ruin it too. Did that kit come with body mounts?
