I start with the beast... 3 hour for mount chassis as the instructions , but the rear links will change before use ... for the moment mount all for view if all parts are in package...

We continue with the auto body, some pieces come double or curled and there is no way of that any lace like debit:

I have tried to lubricate the axes(axles), say tried(meant) because already of origin there are screws that I could not have given up since they have the past head and the screwdriver of titanium has been capable, tendre that to do a plane with the Dremel to give up them with a flat screwdriver and to buy new screws.... Not since(as,like) RC4WD claims that we fit the axes(axles) with socket-pans if they can dismount...

I am to every step mas discontented with the purchase, spend 650 Euros in this project and they are quite lacking and problems....

Probably sera first and last complete car that I buy of this brand :

Plastic drive shafts
Not spare wheel (Not of plastic if it wants)
Screws passed from coil
Body with deformations
Not even drop of lubricant in the components
Absorbers without oil but they do not even include it for his(her,your) filling

I have bought cars of other brands more reduction sales and better ended, besides more complete

Rc4WD was send to me a crew kit for replace bad parts...so nice...

There should have been a spare wheel in the kit.

If I should, I understand the kits always come with some improvement over the RTR, but it's also something I knew before I bought it .... it's a bit sad that they do not include it just like the drive shaft are plastic, but hey, Buy are things we know ....

Now another insanity .... the tires .... the crossrc tires finally arrived and play to ride them ..

1st tires are worth rc4wd tires ... and less bad
2º the screws of the rims are of 1mm, if companions of 1mm not of 1,5mm ... of fact, the nuts the nuts do not get even with the crosshead RC of RC ... with what ...
3º with a 4mm screw I adjust the 1mm screws and then remove the 4mm screw, good work, for a moment I thought of drilling them and put 3mm screws, although as advice from several compñaeros for the moment I will mount them, Time to drill if necessary ...
4º it will be necessary hexagons a hair more wide to avoid that the rubber that is wider than the ones that comes of series does not touch neither in shock absorbers, nor in the support of the panhard ..

I leave you some photos ...

Here a comparison of width with bogger 1.7

Good sweat with the little keys ....

I have to look for hexagons 2-3 mm wider, rubs a little on the panhard support and on the shock absorbers when compressing them ...

I forgot to upload the latest photos of the project. I did what you see in the photos, and sold it without releasing a friend, and now when I see it painted in orange and with a set of handmade roll bars I am jealous hahaha
