Any open slot will be okay.. they are all connected together... (the power side of the connection) That's why you can connect a fan, LED light, etc. to any open slot...

So put one in your TC4 FT (as it is using the high power Novak), put one in your semi.. and maybe get a couple for spares.. hee hee.. for your next BL setup..

Different use.. the cap that came w/ the ESC provides the power reserve for the motor.. (give you more punch)..
The glitch buster is a cap for the BEC / receiver power...

The novak already has a cap

I know what you are saying though, not sure what it will help though. It doesn;t glitch.

Hee hee.. well, the glitch buster thing is really designed for a car that has a high power system.. that the sudden pull from the motor system might bring the BEC / receiver voltage down too much for the control system to work properly..
So I guess what I was trying to say is, put one in your TC4 FT, as it is the car that has a high power Novak system..
How's that?!?!

Because of the body post relo kit, the nice blue Tamiya heatsink won't fit..
Need some lower heatsink.. but man, check out the tight space!

Yup.. did a test fit.. it was pretty darn close..
Just to be sure.. I machined 2 of the fins down a little bit.. NICE!!

Interesting headlight setup..
You mask them out.. and then, use double sided tape to tape them from inside w/ stickers on them..
I guess that's just a way to prevent the stickers from rubbing off?! Hmm..

Another view.. used 6mm offset wheel this time to push wheel all the way out to the body...
I think it looks good.. maybe add some stability?!

Not sure.. I didn't see any optional LED kits listed on the body kit.. who knows..
I guess it does give it a look like it has a clear lens over the light..
I don't think it is for body dimension as the body is molded with the light sticking up already..
