I also bought the HPI Stratos, hoping it would fit the M06, but it didn't, so I had to buy the M05RA and fit it to that! Shucks! Completed the build, with my son in one Sunday afternoon. Just need to complete electrics, and take some pix.

I really appreciate your info. I'll research a bit more before deciding where to spend my money.

Black is good. Would I be able to use the kit springs on these dampers?

Thanks for your steer. Having looked around Ebay, it looks like either Tamiya 54000 or 84118 damper set then.

My M06 Pro is at the PO waiting for me to collect it tomorrow. Can't wait!! This my first M chassis. I've built 2 DF03's and started a Hilift F350. This will have the Renault body, but I'm yet to purchase it. Can anyone please advise on what alternative Dampers can be fitted to replace the brittle see-thru ones?

I can support this theory. Having upgraded to Alloy front gearbox lower mount following break of the plastic one, my son's friend's lack of control caused this........... Fortunately a spare chassis was quickly sourced from Time Tunnel, and I had the satisfaction of completing a quick rebuild.

I can recommend the T Bone Racing bumpers. Available for Front and rear of the Dark Impact (DF03). Made and sold by T Bone Racing in USA. Search on Ebay for Dark Impact Bumpers or seller - tbrbumpers They currently have Front & rear set on Ebay. Made from Nylon. described as virtually indestructible, they will replace foc if you do manage to break it. Supplied with countersunk screws. I have this fitted to both of my son's Dark Impacts. We have managed to break two, usually by full speed crash into the kerb, and have received replacements without question. I can provide more pictures or if you want to email T Bone direct pm me for their email address.

That will be me. Glad the pictures were of interest. I've since moved on to DF03, Dark Impact, and have built two for my sons, who still want more speed. I enjoy the build, and have now started a F350. So does anyone have pictures of their Jet Hopper?
