CVD drive shafts

Not included:

ESC (electronic speed control)

Note: ESC area is restricted to approximately: 46mm length x 28mm width x 24mm height)
Most ESCs would need to be used WITHOUT the fan installed to fit under the steering column - with the small sized motor they don't get too hot anyway!
Some suggested known compatible ESCs:

Hobbywing EzRun 60A Brushless ESC
QuicRun 10BL60/120 Sensored (used in sensorless mode)
Racerstar 35A ESC Brushless
Surpass 35A ESC
XeRun XR10 Stock Spec (high end race type!)

Please ask us about any other ESCs --> and we can evaluate if they will fit, for you!

Transmitter & Receiver

Note: Receiver space is restricted to approximately: 42mm long x 26mm wide x 22m height

If your ESC/Receiver are larger than dimensions noted above you may have a challenge to squeeze it in the available area!

...however if you are still unsure if your electronics will fit (and not intending to buy new components for this build) - contact us with the exact model and dimensions of your ESC and/or Rx and we will evaluate the installation feasibility for you, given the variables we can't guarantee, but can give pretty good recommendation either way!

Battery must be:

Size: LIPO Shorty 7.4V 2S
Max dimensions: 96mm x47mm x 26mm
Smaller will fit, and would require you to add padding to suit

Finishing details:

This part is up to you!
Please add your passion and modelling skills to finishing off this model with as much detail as you can! The more realistic and period accurate the better!
Flexible body parts (printed in TPU) can be painted with any RC paint designed for polycarbonate shells, such as the Tamiya PS range.
We recommend using an old-school cool sticker set, such as those available for purchase directly from MCI Racing.com.
Even just good old plain British Racing Green, Ferrari Red, McLaren Papaya or Honda White is more than acceptable to reflect historic minimalism!
