Advice please, i am in the process of building a speeedline 1/16 severn, bit frustrating but i am sure i will get to grips with it as the build progresses,  ideas for the motors, i would like to go for brush-less, size,type of batteries lipo?, also having a bit of trouble fittting the prop shafts and a frames, measurement given given for the installation seems to be to far back, advice fron anyone who has built this model would be appreciated.

Hi you will need lots of patients with this kit but you will be rewarded. the measurements are correct so follow them. the motors I put in are two Overlander 4250 brushless running on 24volts 2 x 4600 12v NI-MH big motors but you have the power if needed I can never under stand why people try to get them just right.

Hi, I agree with Stuart , just take your time ,go by the old addage of measure twice and cut once.
