Very nice job. I need to learn how to solder  I was appreciating your work last night and saw what looks to be the same battery setup this morning:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ayphotohosting
Thought it was cool to see the same battery layout on a retail model car. Never heard of that RC, but I've been watching ebay for any 1/24 scale stuff to spend my "anything points" on. Wish there were more Mini-X parts on ebay since I've got the points to burn ($25) and its my only RC currently, but I guess I'll just have to get something else :P

I think I have you beat, I've got a carbon fiber chassis and am running 8 cells with an Orion Elite Mod motor and Flash ESC. As soon as my batteries and ESC get here I should have one mean mother. And yes it is still an Xmod.

what size batteries are you both using? one looks like AAA and the other i think might look like sub-c size but not really sure.

Thats hot dude. It seems xmods have become a glorified source of suspension for many people :P So where did you get the CF chassis? And as for the batts, I'm going to guess 5/4 AAA. What electronics are you using on it?

Thats a whole lotta V. Where'd you get the CF plate to dremel up? Did you find CF easy to work with using your dremel or is this not your first time? I've read so many posts about people wanting to do CF, but I've only seen a handful actually do it. Very cool.
Oh yea, and how fast does that thing go on 12.1V?!

Where can one buy all those hoppy grade electronice. And can that special servo wire onto a xmod esc? My servo took a crap and now I need a replacement and wouldnt mind upgrading. Oh and how much did all the electronics run you. Thanks

Also Can I get some parts numbers or more descriptive names of the different servos and esc that can be used. Can the stock lights be used with the aftermarket esc?
