Yeah- I can do that myself though for the throttle channel, did it with my laser 6- that freaked me out initially; I was like ' oh crap, I cant drive it with a throttle that doesnt return to centre by itself', but I soon figured it out after opening up the case and removing the little stop pin & ratchet thingy. Warrenty void ftw!

Photo time:















I had to relocate the esc to a tray behind the motor like I said- couldnt make it fit under the tranny without lowering the centre skid too much. That meant extending the power wires 3 inches, but since this isnt a schulze I have faith it wont blow up randomly as a result. Couldnt just spin the battery around as the wires exit right next to the spur- 'munch munch munch' if you get my drift. There isnt enough slack/ flexibilty in the wires for them to droop and get caught in the current layout, so it should be fine. Just waiting on my DX6i now so that I can get that installed and setup, then got to paint and trim the shell and its ready to rock & roll.
