      BATTCAVE now do a front mounted servo kit with a surpass servo included which can be found here battcave.co.uk/shop/ols/products/jok3r-front-mounted-servo-kit/v/FR-SVO-KIT They also do a front mount for the savox sh0257 servo. battcave.co.uk/shop/ols/products/battcave-jok3r-savox-sh0057mg-front-mini-servo-mount-jkr-0257-mg I run each of these in my Jok3r-R cars but before I moved to these I ran a Savox sc1251mg which in all honesty is probably overkill Be sure to check club class specs if you plan on racing as some have a servo cost limit.

    A technical fact when connecting two 1n4700 diodes and a 1ohm resistor in series in each cell will be perfectly balanced at 1.4 volts, with this the battery increases the discharge of amps and its useful life.

      To be honest I’ve heard of one person breaking a BD11 arm. I just didn’t want to be the second and get caught out. Touch wood I’ve not had a breakage with it yet. I think the RS2.0 is a great entry into touring car. I’ve just got a couple of Tamiya TT01E chassis to run in spec classes and struggling to get excited about it. I’d much prefer the RS2.0 as a spec chassis. It seems a very logical stepping stone before the competition spec kits available at such a great price!
