Stopped and picked me up today a rr10 bomber to add to the collection. Just the rtr version, no kit, I know the kit has better stuff right out of the box but in my situation currently in doing good just to pick this rtr up. Excited to get it out this weekend and just to get to get the wheels rolling. Been trying to read past forums to get where everyone is with their bomber. So be nice guys when the time comes and always open to suggestions, lol. Sent from my SM-J727T using Tapatalk |

You should have a blast with a bomber. We all have to start somewhere, I will be happy to help with whatever your future plans for the bomber be.

I started with RTR bomber too. It has been a blast. It crawls great and a lot of fun on the trails. I did break the steering servo on the first day and replaced it with a savox. Everything else is holding up great stock.

Thanks guys. I know it's not perfect, but over time it will get upgrades. Did get out today for a short run today, had fun time. An adventure awaits ahead. Sent from my SM-J727T using Tapatalk |

do yourself a favor and make your first good investments metal steering links and a metal case servo along with a BEC. Aside from that, run it till it snap crackle pops!

| Re: New guy here Might I amen your list with adding replacing front axle shafts (dog bone shafts and solid steering links are going to break knuckles or C-hub)

Yep the steering servo will be the first thing to go on this truck. I've never been impressed with the stock tactic servos. Appreciate the advice, axles, links, hubs upgrades. The weather has been stupid here at home, sun, snow, rain. The weather lately doesn't know what it's doing, just like my wife, lol. The weather has has ruined a few of my trips out so the way i see it mother nature owns me some nice days ahead. |
