Thought you ordered the one JR recommended...
But I guess it's the brain of the driver that matters. :pinch:

no i ordered this one,
www.ebay.co.uk/...1439.l2649

figure it cant be hard to get it to fit, either graft the originol head on or drill the new head and screw that to the shell, cant be that hard. i liked the look of this driver and it was cheaper than the bigwig driver

well, its all finished and ready to go now.
new driver turned up today, grafted the old head on and, with a few slight mods, he fitted in perfectly. by himself all painted up.....

secured to the body.....

mirrored visor is a nice touch i think (didnt have any face coloured paint!)
body fitted to chassis.....


esc switch mounted so the driver can reach it......(he has arms now!!!)

and finally the finished item...

cant wait for saturday now, to take it for a blast
