I ordered a hitec x1 touch charger and some 3s 450mha 65c lipos. My creation fab shock spacers should be here this week. The carbon fiber transmission plate has shipped. I'll take a few pictures when I put them on.

The dravpar carbon fiber plate is lighter than my lightened finned aluminum plate. I thought they would be closer to the same weight. I guess every little thing helps. Thank you to Tobias.

Hay that looks awesome! I can't wait to see it in person! Dan is an amazing vendor to work with. I didn't know what I wanted and gave him free rain over the project.

I got some tuning advice from Winnerone23 and bmachinerc. I put long rod ends on the rear shocks and added 55w shock oil. Also changed the position of the front shocks. Both of these things help overall handling. I ordered f1 spools from locked up rc to replace the hot racing one.
