A lot has changed!

Check out the slideshow: V-twin Sidewinder engine with Spektrum carburetor!

I love the look of the "engine". The fuel is supplied by a 2s 4000 lipo in the trunk. It's a bit slower than before but that's NBD. I'm using a Hitec 645MG at the moment and it's working well. No UBEC yet, no complaints from the Sidewinders yet either. I also installed 0.5" travel limiters on the shocks to tame the articulation. The Flat Irons aren't too grippy, IMO, so I ordered a set of the Chisel 2.2 G8 tires that come with the memory foams. They are about 0.75" larger in diameter, 0.2" wider, and are a softer compound. I have "high hopes" for them!
