Wait, with that wing mount, does the entire top half of the mount pivot on the upper screws and the lower screws are riding in slots? I don't like that idea...1 bad landing and the wing is all pushed forward or back.

lol it doesnt look anything like a ttr, its pretty much a K3 on roids

im not too crazy about the whole wing mount thing, especially the 4 screws that hold it on. Its cool that you can adjust the wing moutn angly instead of just the wing itself tho

Guys its like 4 or 5 pics of the thing right? Im sure AE didnt go through the the trouble of entering the most competitive and popular nitro class without making sure they were giving the public thier absolute best design.... Remember AE isnt new to the world championship thing. They know what it takes to win a race!

So everything is mounted as close to center as possible, and what ever parts they can make out of CF, is made out of CF. (even part of the steering rack is made of CF)

Wow Czech, I wish I could drive that car for AE.

That thing looks good! I said if I ever got into scale I was waiting until the RC8 came out. Now that I don't have any money.... I'll just stare in awe.

That’s when you add some weight to the car (that you decide to use) so it would have more momentum and all those other since terms that apply. lol Rolleyes
