As for when the MBX5 ultimate tray will be ready, If Dan can make mid march that would be awesome, however, based on what is on his plate and his statements, I am thinking probably end of March at the earliest, maybe Early April.
When do you think you will get a chance to run your buggy at all?

You have to be careful I guess when mounting the tray. What I did was to use the existing motor mount holes in the chassis. I cut the spacer to fit where I wanted it. Then used some short bolts and nuts with lock washers on the 2 holes that were not under the tray itself. And I used short (1/2 inch) coarse thread wood screws for the 2 holes that were under the tray as to not go all the way through the spacer into the tray. Then I used the same short wood screws to hold the tray to the spacer. I just used a counter sink and drilled them out first. I hope it holds. It seems to be ok.
As far as my RCPD order, we'll see when it shows up I guess. I'm trying to not make such a big deal out of it. I don't want to embarrass him or cause him bad publicity or anything. I just want to get this thing moving. I know some people would be trashing him out by now. He told me if I was tired of waiting he would refund my money but I told him that it was ok. I would wait.
I just sent GlassDoctor a check for an esc. So all I need now is a battery and a new charger. I have a superbrain 977 but I want to get the Hyperion with balance taps built in. It would probably be better in the long run.
I hope to be rolling in the next few weeks.
