    Anyone got any ideas how to use black and white on the ofna? I'm wanting to use mostly black, maybe white wing. The wheels will be white.

    To each is own, but I'm a bright as hell kinda guy, I want it to show up on the track (unless, of course your looking for a scale appearance) especially at night, and not be confused with other folks' stuff on the track. I did a black and white zebra theme (ala Ted Nugent style) body for a buddy awhile back, looked pretty cool. Remember to spray white last, regardless of what scheme you go with.

    Yea. I'm thinking black where he has the black and white where he has all those other colors. I'll probably do that strip on the bottom white, too. And a white wing. Mask the all those strips and the windows off, spray black, unmask stripes, spray white. Then I'll do a liberal coat of bedliner. Then unmask the winders and voila!

    Eddie Van Halen guitarish, (is that to old of a reference for you?). Don't forget, checkerboard always looks good, well, to me at least.

    ^^Sounds like you might have got a better deal on your servos than I did on my Savox. If they hold up, that is.

    savox servos are definitely better. I have 2 savox SC 1258-TG servos. I have also been running a solar D770 for a while.
