What is your point here? You were saying that a 1512 was a good alternative to the 1515. And a number of us were trying to explain why it wasn't. So this is where you say, "thanks guys for setting me straight and helping me not make a stupid motor choice."

Thanks guys for setting me straight and helping me not make a stupid motor choice! :)

Although I thought it was obvious by saying that yes I probably would move to a 1518 or 1520!

People have mounted the bodies in a couple of different ways. Here are some pics on how I mounted it. You can also look through my gallery http://picasaweb.google.com/thzerodo...x5BConversion#.

The body mounts right there...look on top of the rear/side of the body, you will see it poking through!

Still the best Savage5's I've seen.

I think Tamiya or Trinity or Dynamite makes body posts like that. Search Tower.

Thanks. And yes, I don't know what they were, but you can find any number of different sized body posts to cut down and use. Tower can be a great place to hunt for them.
