I made this to keep the hoses from rubbing the rudder linkage and keep them separated. Its a good ways below the rudder push rod. Just looks close in the pic.

well The spartan finally made it to the lake today just kidding I thought you guys would get a kick out of my spartan in the garden pond in front of my house
tomorrow I will take it to the lake near my parents place to see what it can do, note this will be my first run it never made it to the lake before due to the esc fire in my basement (Traxxas = winning duh ) now its all upgraded and ready to rip i'll let ou know how it goes
