Hey guys,

Hopfully ill be joining the summit clan when I get my new summit on Monday! Can't wait. Just wanted to know if theres anything to watch out for when I recieve the summit? From what I've heard its all pretty good. I'll want to run it a lot but may look into getting a brushless, not to get a head of myself. But my mate has a summit and says he can't wait to get his brushlesses for some more speed. So does anyone know the speed on a stock summit-with the stock batteries?
Thanks.

it's about 23ish mph. and one thing to watch out for is the servos are almost never aligned right. they always end up fighting against eachother. so you'll have to disconnect the steering linkage and adjust everything so they work together instead of against eachother

Let me know when you dump the servos I always have a place for the 2075s . You will like the brushless I had the hpi setup in mine and it never got hot.
