|  Just starting the Rock Force build Thought about getting into Rock Crawlers for a while. As a child I loved Stompers...still have a vast collection of them. I'm mostly into planes, but have a couple RC trucks, all electric, a bike and a sailboat. The Rock Force looks like a great kit. Looking forward to getting on it, unfortunately, both drive shafts are missing from the kit...thats all I noticed so far. I did get the dig, so it came with one. Is there a drawing that shows how the dig for the Rock force goes together? Thanks for your help! Jimmy |

| Not to pile on, looks like a real nice kit, but mine is missing both "worm wheel shafts" as well (PN's "RF006"). It looks like my serial number is somewhere in between 2760, +/-20 (?). Inspector Yamazaki needs some new glasses. |

| Yeah I just emailed Kyosho. I suppose this is the (small) price we pay for an industry that is moving at lightspeed, rushing to push fresh new products out the door. Nothing bores me more than a stagnant industry recycling the same old stuff. That is certainly not the case here. What a great time to be into rc crawling! Though I am not quite sure what to do about those "tires" in my $400 kit....they'll make good dog toys I suppose. Blah. |
