i dont think it will fit with the bumper, because it is reely low at the front

Lunchboxer

I wasn't worried about the front bumper.. (you can shave the foam..) But more the rear body post location.. probably won't fit w/ the relocation kit..

No biggie, as I can always change back to the standard location in a few minutes, I guess!

lee172

guess who's bought a vintage Audi R8R bodyset.. (still new in box!) its for the F103 LM chassis, but it should fit the 103 GT chassis hopefully..

lee172

could somebody measure the distance in between the standard body posts please?

Lunchboxer

Standard?! You mean, the standard for F103GT or F103GT Courage? (They have different body post location)

I also don't run F103GT standard bodypost, I have the 3Racing relocation kit that move the body bost to the back to better support the shell..

Argh...

Let me know what you want to know, though.... Right now my F103GT is running a touring car body... [&:]

lee172

if you could get all 3 measurements, that would be very cool, as i will get whatever fits! i aint in no hurry though

Lunchboxer

LOL, no point of measuring the current setup that I have.. as the rear relocation kit moves the posts all the way back.. and from the pics that you shown of the F103LM, its setup is closer to the standard F103 Courage setup..

I will go home and take a look.. see if I can find those small body posts.. (but I guess you just need the dimension, so I don't really need to swap things back on..)

Should be able to find the info..

However, I am not sure if the standard F103GT kit (not the Courage) has those smaller bodyposts...

Maybe you should get a Courage kit, then you will have 2 cool shells!!

nice 1 lee

rcluke

how much was that lee?, and are you going to use it?

lee172

it cost £32 including shipping from Japan, i was the only person that bid for it! i'm not sure whether i will use it, the box and full bodyset are in mint condition, and its seriously rare NIB (new in box). i posted a pic of the box in the lounge, but i'll add a couple of the contents as well in here.

rcluke

send us some pix, and i personally say dont use it

lee172

here is the lexan body.. very wide and extremely long, also shown are the wings, fittings and driver's head on the bottom right.

here are the decal instructions and the decals..

Time to get a F103GT Courage!!

Raguvian

Don't use it.

hey guys, is there any way to make a quick release battery holder for the F103GT?

rcluke

how wide are them wheels?
because i've got 30mm wide on the rear of my gt, and i was thinking of putting the Jag XJR12 wheels / tyres on te back lol

Lunchboxer

No easy way.. you can get the quick release battery gate for M-chassis car and modify it to fit, I guess, but it will require some modification for sure..

rcluke

o...im just sick of the stock one, it takes too long when your trying to get redy for a race

Lunchboxer

Have you raced it with TCs w/ mod motors yet?!

Lunchboxer

Put a "brushless" sticker on the NSX body for the F103GT!

Lunchboxer

Also adjust the ESC to full power punch.. I calibrated it using the soft punch here at the parking lot but that's because the traction here's bad.. but I remember at the track, it didn't have problem putting down the power.. so full power it is!! LOL!

Can't wait to test it out at the track again!

rcluke

i have raced a modded Tamiya TB02, and a yokomo SSG and beat them in a straight line drag race. All cars had silver can motors, but the TB-02, had loads of cmmm drops in

Lunchboxer

Silvercan, it is gonna be hard for the TCs to touch the F103GT... but when all cars use high power motors, it might be a different story..

rcluke

yeah i'll try it
