What is the advantage of using the metal transmission if you are using the driveshaft support bushings? Is it strictly for appearance?

it is for the appearance (sure - you can also make the weld seam by yourself - but it will be difficult to correct the wrong Tamiya screws) and the heaviness ...

Status: offline 		Hallo Dave,

das ist wirklich schnell und super für den Markt, denn so entsteht mehr Konkurrenz und bessere Preise für uns Kunden ! Aber auf Axel ist eben verlass !
Was für Teile hast Du bestellt ... ?

That is really fast - but on Axel you can count ! This is good for the international prices if we get a market that includes Europe and North Amerika ! Like Kissinger and Genscher said ...
What parts have you ordered ... ?

Greetings

Status: offline 		Ordered the POM gearbox supports, couple of buckets, tow cables and some other small parts. I'm going to start modifying my exhaust in the next couple of days. I would post some pics, but I am at work right now and our "censors" won't let us upload any.

Hab die POM gearbox supports, ein paar eimer, abschleppseile und ein paar andere kleinigkeiten. Ich will meine auspuff demnaechste modifiziern, wie in rc-panzerketten-forum, jetzige Porsche KT baubericht.
