  • Scorpion XL or XXL

    Looking for a speedo for my featherweight for the UK champs, due to size constraints I'm looking for a Scorpion, the 4QD's I was planning to use just about fit, but nothing else will. Any other similar sized speedos might also do it.

    Cheers

      Would be good if anyone had some to begin with though, I don't fancy having to import them then send them off to be modified, especially not with deadlines looming.

        I know I bang on about them all the time but have you looked at the electronize controllers?

          I have got a set of electronize 43HVR's too and will be using them when running in 4WD, but it was for 2WD that I was looking at the Scorpion XL for more precise control when running with a spinner. Also space is looking like it could become an issue.

            I think my advert will end up being more hopeful than anything else as I see quite a few people are also looking for XL's. I'm not sure what the situation is with Rick Mass' controllers, would I need to have one to upgrade or does he have a supply?

            Also, I've noticed you can get a decent discount if you order them in quantities of 2 or more from Robot Power Online if anyone else is looking for any that could be an option. I think they work out at about £63 each?

              you'll probably get hit by tax and have to pay another 30% though.

                Even then it would come out at around £80, similar to 2 electronize is it not?

                    I heartily recommend a set of NCC-35s from 4QD combined with the necessary interface unit and associated cabling. That's all relatively compact

                    Apologies for the complete uselessness of this post :P

                      It was relatively compact compared to using a small car engine yes. Infact, it was probably similar size now that I think of it

                        I'll leave this a day or 2 and see if anyone has one they're selling, which I don't think will happen judging by the number of adverts for people looking for them.

                        If anyone else wants one then pm me or post on here any we will be able to get them a bit cheaper.

                            Nice one mate.

                            I haven't no, I looked at his site for a bit but didn't see contact details. Does he have them to sell or would I have to import them then get them to him?

                              If you decide to go for a bulk order of XL's, let me know when you're ordering. Thinking about it, having one for either Carcinus or Grond would be good but obviously if you're ordering from the US, it'd need to be placed soon to allow time for the goods to arrive before the champs. So if I've been paid by the time an order gets made (if you have to resort to ordering overseas that is) then I'll chip in for one but if not, then no probs.
