Status: offline 		Can some people help me with the bearing i'm going to need?
Tower hobbies state that you'll need 26 of 5x11 and 4 of the 6x12.
But i've read somewhere that you'll also need some of the 8x5x2,5.

What bearings do i need? (i've ordered a globe liner, but from the looks the drive trains from the king, knight and globe are the same bearing wise)

And oh boy, my hands are itching to get my truck (on it's way from hong kong as i speak) and strat building after reading this whole tread.
You've got some nice trucks.

Like I already sead i've ordered me a globe liner because I don't see the often. Unfortunately when I see them they are always painted in the sample collors tamiya chose.

Status: online 		Yeah, you can certainly drive it w/ the 3PKS.. but like DarkFire said, you won't be able to activate the MFU functions via the radio..

You can also just do the basic light unit as they are so cheap now (from 3Racing, Yeah Racing, etc. see the one I use in my CR-01), so if you don't want the vibration unit / sound unit, you can certainly use the 3PKS..

Status: online 		Saw this at TamiyaUSA website.. the ad for the RTR Aeromax!

Direct from TamiyaUSA only, on sale for $960! (still high to me, but good if you don't want to build it!!)

That includes the 4-ch radio and MFU!
