if lipo on 1 side, and ECS, Receiver on the other side, it seems like the weight balance is not even?
--> you are correct, however, you can add 'lead' weight to balance the car.
this is my setup: http://bbs.rc-evo.com/viewthread ... p;page=1#pid1200958
(i am using 2 cell A123, but you can put in 1S lipo instead)
--> is the parts for RC12L3 still available in KWS? If not, I think it is better off to buy the L5?
rare parts if any in KWS or even in the US. If you r serious in 1/12, its better to buy a new car with parts support.
Current 1/12 includes:
t-bar cars: HB 12x, Xray XII, S120?
link cars: CRC, RC12R5
