The Build – Part 7
Today’s electronics are super-small and very light. While their placement is not super critical on the performance of the car, we do want them as close to the centerline as possible.
Build Notes:
The F104X1 is considered a pan-car style chassis. Because of this, using thick wire from the ESC to the motor can hinder the movement of the rear pod. I would suggest using nothing bigger than 16g wire. It’s flexible enough and will still transfer plenty of power to the motor.
There isn’t a ton of room under the F1 body. Tidy wires are essential for a nice, clean fit.
