I see issue 19 is a helmet, in other pics you can see a steering wheel with hands. what else is involved in the cockpit of the car? does the helmet sit on a body or torso? i would think so, if there are hands there must be arms and so on ....

thanks guys

BigGrin Hi Shane
If you look at the official build from page one ,there is a pic of the car body attached to the chassis and several of it removed, when you line up the cockpit there is too much stuff underneath to fit a compleat body figure on the model. So I suspect that the cockpit will have a flat floor that the helmet and stearing wheel will fit in but that's about it. Hope this helps
regards

Because of space limitations of an R/C car, compromises have to be made, there isn't a cockpit interior as such or full body driver.

On the static display body, the the middle upper body has a flat cockpit base which the helmet is secured to, the racing bodyshell also has a flat cockpit base. But for the racing bodyshell, a two piece helmet is provided which has a circular cutout at the rear, which locates onto the airfilter which is directed through a hole in the bodyshell and into the helmet.

As per the images below..
