I dont really like how Alza racing does business myself. I have seen their 5B TVPs on ebay, and its not an auction or a BIN for the TVPs, but you bid on the information on how to buy them. Kind of a scam if you ask me.

If you have read carefully, you will see that for 0.99$ you get 5% voucher code for that particular product in store.

Scam is when you get nothing but information.

If you check on ebay, a lot of companies advertises their sites that way. Especialy when you are new company and you can not afford advertising campains.
And they are all selling coupons and vouchers.

And ebay is a place where lot of people are serching for products.

You are not bidding on information. Please read again, before you say it's a SCAM.

Thank you, Dejan

I knew it, all universities are a scam. Take it easy, just a joke.

Small update... I cutted middle "support tower" of the HPI baja roll cage, wich i will not be using and made body mounts. Drilled m3 hole to m4 so i use m4 screw...

I didnt have a lot of black colour left so i finished with white..

Knez · 03:44 PM

Frond body post i made also from support tower form hpi roll cage and i drilled M3 hole in to the traxxar receiver box mounted small part on it, made another hole for body post... this menas my body is secured with 3 body posts.

Well for front part didnt came out as i wanted so i will be putting back front bumper... just sits to low like this as body is a bit higher do to the jubo servos wich dont alowe body to sit lower.

Front part was serured with those 2 lights...srewd 2 screws in and cutted them that screwd the "lights" on.
AS u can see on th last picture, it dosent look good! I just cutted to much and sits to low at the front...

I think your servo is to big. Cut the body, so the servo sticks out, and body will go lower.

Than i would have to cut a bit for traxxas receiver box to...hmm, will see..maybe i do cut the body..

But bumper is also good to protect the front part a bit..as now my front is totally exposed.

hi bud! The videos are awesome!
They are both performing really well...

Silly quesiton here, but are you just using a body clip pin to hold the wing on the stock body mounts??? Or another method? Any closer pics?

THANKS

Josh

That's what I did... the Savage body mount posts fit perfectly with the Baja 5B wing, then I just used some heavy duty body clips.

Hi Jah!
As thzero sad, only body post are holding the wing and baja 5b wing is perfect fit. Thanks for comments :)
Hope u make video soon of ur red devil!

But wing is not 100% stabilized it is moving a little. Would recomend some washers or something in between to fill the gap/space and to act as a support for the wing.
