Where could I get a fast RC Lotus Elise or Exige?
 

I'm big into lotus and want to get back into RC. I figured may as well go with my fave car.

I'm currently cruising these forums to find good websites, but I am a super noob so I would appreciate any help.

:D

You can't get a RC Elise. It's just the body. The HPI kits have an Elise body but I've never seen a Exige body.

That is so neat. Ill really have to build one after I get all my computer upgrades done.

Holy crap thats exactly what I want. Where can i get it? DO you have a URL or a company name? What did you say it was HPI or something...I shall look for it tommorow when i am not so damn tired.

THANKS! You have done me a HUGE favor.

None of their kits seem to come with the Elise body. So you would have to buy:

electric: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...P?&C=CAD&V=HPI

or nitro: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...P?&C=CBB&V=HPI

Then you would have to buy the body: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXZT42&P=0
You'll also need lexan paint. Normal spray paint won't work, it'll flake off.
Yes, you have to paint it yourself.

Take notice that there are two sizes for the bodies. One is 190mm and the other is 200mm. It doesn't matter much, but if the kit you bought comes with a 200mm body, then you'll want the 200mm Elise body. It'll fit better.
