Quote from build:
The seats are actually hollow allowing for a small ESC and receiver to be located and that blue blob above the seats will be where the mini LiPo sits.

Thanks for all the support and links to my parts guys, I am just finding this thread now and really appreciate you guys finding and sharing my stuff. I try to be on most of the forums so you can pm if you have questions or issues and I'll try to help as best as I can (always as Toykid).

For those of you who like my sand rail conversion. You might also like this if you haven't already seen it. Convert you Tamiya FAV into a navyseal Desert Patrol Vehicle (DPV).

Best,

James.
