They have 2 US warehouse now, I have a feeling it came from one of them. Customs never moves that quickly. I here you though Tower hobby is 4 hours from my house, if your driving slow and it takes at least a week to get a thing.

Thanks! It's far from finished, I have a trailer in the works and there's a matching Tamiya sand scorcher to go with the scale desert racing theme that's in progress for these 3

Well, I took the plunge and ordered from Hobbyking. Still reasonable even with shipping cost.

Now that you've had a chance to tinker with it, what's your opinion?

It's a twin hammers with less quality electronics and generic at best instructions. Good platform for someone who either builds customs, needs parts or for a young enthusiast. Minor adjustments are needed out of the box like grease and shock oil.
I'm satisfied for the money spent for my needs.

That shipping from Hobbyking is insane. Ordered on friday, arrived monday from China. Really like this truck, minus the electronics of course. Ill post pics one I get everything swapped out. Waiting on the GCM rear truss and front plate.

Would stock gearing be ok with a 10.5t sensored motor on 2s?

According to another site, some WL transmitters will bind with a Hobbyking 3ch receiver. Anyone have one?
