Brian,
I preordered today but didn't see the $20 discount coupon. How can I apply it now?
Thanks

I replied by PM. You apply the MRCG1 coupon when you go to "checkout" your purchase. So if you already placed the order I'm not sure if you can still apply it.

Brian any word when the chassis is going to ship?
I read on your MR02 thread EMU got the chassis already.

My chassis is a prototype. It is made out of G10 fiberglass and delrin. No alloy or carbon firber. I am still ordering the pre-order as well.

Ah, I didn't make that very clear, did I. A few GSR members have G10/Delrin prototype MRCG's to test and race, in addition to the development work that I've been doing.
As for the production CF/alloy chassis, I would like to place the final parts orders within another two weeks and have the parts arrive mid-October. Sorry for the wait.

Hi there, I also placed an order for this chassis and didn't get the 20 dollar discount. Is it to late or can I still get the discount?

What electronics do you recommend best for this chassis? I was considering the 2.4 board for MR02, but it requires aftermarket servo and I dont' want to have to solder things up if I dont have to.
Can I use the Spektrum 3500 receiver? What do you recommend?

If you have the cash (it certainly seems like you do ) then probably the Spektrum 3500 plus a Novak Spy or Xray ESC, with a Futaba S3154 digital servo. To be honest though I think the ASF board is pretty adequate, and AFAIK its servo circuitry is also digital. If you modify it with an external turbo it will be just as efficient and powerful as any modular ESC.
Looks like I have stuff to add to the FAQ thread, thanks marc.

I used the Spektrum SR3001 RX, with Xray XMC-180 ESC and Futaba S3154 servo. I am avoiding the Hitec servo's. My last one didnt center properly, and I dont want to deal with that again for a $35 servo.
I have heard that the JR 285 is a good servo, and will be ordering that for my CF MRCG.
