RE: Hen Long 1/16 KV-1

Kclank; your suspension mod sounds like just the thing. Could you expand on your process? Is there anything to be wary of, like springs boinging across the room? How did you reclock? TIA.

RE: Hen Long 1/16 KV-1

Thanks Bill; this issue is quite minor, but a little foresight in securing the part better than hindsight. Sharing is one of the reasons to participate in this forum.
