i just got one i don't see many hopups upper links are alluminum,lockers are the cross ones,they might be stock ,axle shafts are universal joint .might be better to get a rtr for the radio and esc.i had a rtr also.i also got a really good deal on it but rpp can't be beat.

If you already have a Tx and Rx, then get the kit.

The best things about the kit are the front universal shafts and the R35 compound Ripsaws.

Yeah, that ESC should work well. I run a MMP1C with my 17.5T motor and it puts a BIG smile on my face!  |

Well, I won my kit and built it in two evenings to get it ready for a G6 comp that weekend! It is definitely handy to have an electric screwdriver. Ask whatever questions you want, that is the purpose of this forum. |

It's an excellent kit. And price is kept low so there aren't really any upgrades except what was listed above. U joints are the important part. Very nice kit Axial |

Yeah, that motor will be pretty fast and wont have much torque for crawling.
