Any more news on this? It would be nice to get some practise running with the updated car before the UK nationals start next month. |

Look forward to seeing the new car. By any chance are we getting a new X10 this year also? Colin |

Any chance there will also be a conversion kit for our previous X12 or did so much change that isn't possible? |

Conversion set will be not available as most parts are new so the price will be too high, however all parts will be available also separately. |

Now some packs done. There is some development, something hasn't changed and something has gone to worse. The worse: -All balls (screws&pivot&suspension) have been coated black. My pivot was so stuck with the new coated ball that I had to use an old one. The same goes to front suspension balls, the coating had to be removed. No problems with coating of the ball screws. -Shock has to be removed to change battery when in inline config. Or I haven't figured out how to do it. -Spring steel rear axle is 10g heavier than CF one. The same: -Front end has still slop -Only 2 new plastic parts (front arms) and new CF parts, otherwise your spare parts do fine  -body post are on the same location as the old X12, antenna not. -Pivot point is on exactly the same place as X12 -No predrilled holes for micro servo  The change: -Front end is about 2mm narrower with Jaco wheels. It affects alot to the steering, now the car feels to turn-in good and turns in the corner also. I would like to buy those new optional alu inserts to get it to way I like it. -New fronts arms, cannot be used with older cars. It seems that these are a bit lower so you can use smaller front tires than before? -Durable spring steel rear axle.  -Rear pod moves easier when the car is in inline config when using AWG13/AWG14 cords. The X12 should have had the inline battery mounting also on the left...-You can have battery cross the car! But there is no setup for it provided. Pivot point should be more to the front but this is a compromise to have the battery also inline... It is easy to balance electronics with cross config! -Narrower chassis scrubs definitely less! Took some ideas from this to the old car  -New front ride height adjusters are Sweet! -Shock position has changed a lot and side springs more inboard. My car had one of the front arm alu inserts unusable without dremel. See attached pic. Otherwise build was smooth and simple. I was waiting for more updates for the car.

I ran mine for the first time last night. I agree with most of your points. I'm dissapointed in the slop in the front suspension, the large pivot balls at the top of the kingpin seem to be the worse point. I'd rather have the carbon rear axle, I'll probably swap the steel one with the one in my old X12. The kit could do with another spacer or two, so the front can be made low enough with new race ready tyres. I built the car with the cell across the chassis. Kit setup was lacking in front end grip like this, easy to drive but ultimately not quick enough in the corners. I'm hoping I get my order of springs before the UK national next weekend. I ended up on magenta foams all round and still lacked front grip, usually it's double pink fronts, magenta or pink rears. |
