Oh.....but what does bottom on the bottom mean?
Would that coating prevent certain mods?
Thanks.

SE in disguise....

I think I might use this body, transplant the lights over to it, and cut a T-Top in. I kinda like the existing Savanna wheels on the Camaro, looks like the rally style wheels the real ones have. What do you think?

The tires fit exactly the same. The only thing I noticed so far is that the Savanna hubcaps are a little tighter fit on the regular Zip rear axles.

This is probably more of a Mod for the next generation of ZZSE, Something I'd DEFINATELY like to see adjusted (or better yet adjustable) is the controller steering "play".

What I mean by that is the wheel, on the controller, travels 45° and -45° from neutral...BUT to go from Straight to FULL turn is only like +/- 20°. That's just too tight for my taste.

Here's a diagram to better show what I mean. The Black arrow represents Neutral. From Black to either Green arrows is how much the wheel travels...From Black to either Blue arrows though is about how much the full range of propo steering there is (quite tight).

Namuna, you wanna be the first to tear apart his controller and see how one might adjust that?

You are correct, I have noticed that it doesn't appear to be using the full range of the wheel.

Well, apparently the 4 screws in the controller isn't the only thing holding it together.

Gonna have to fidget with it some more to figure out how to rip it apart.

You're right, it is held together pretty good. I was able to get it popped open all the way around except near the trim dial.
