The stock radio has no range! Time to upgrade.... Hitec srx FM should be good enough for this lil guy. I got out of range in about 50 feet and there it went.....not too far though (fence). No damage but a driver gone mechanic for a bit.

What do you mean the stock radio has no range? How far can you go? You tested it inside or outside?

Theres no fences in my house.....or a 50 foot room I just stuck a 03MM hitec rx in there. Time to go and break it in with out fear of the fence. It gets up and goes pretty quick though. It is soooooo cold here now. I might sit on it for a day or too. Pray for warm weather eh!

The chassis is looking awesome. Like the big one. Hope for you that this MIF as fast as your bucks changed their owner. LOL

Heck no. I'm not digging in there until I have to. I will after break in to change fluids and set it up. I'm putting 1/10 wheels on it now. I'll have pics in a few. After looking outside I think I am going to put shock towers, steering knuckles and steering block on it now. All alum. of course

Well decided to wait until I break it in to add weight to it. I may leave this one stock for the most part and see how it performs. Maybe write a review or something.

Tank 3 is completed..lol. I used tin foil to wrap the head and it went really well. I even had the little woman take a vid of tank 3 HOWEVER I have no idea how to put it on here. I can get it on my computer but never sent a vid in my life so if any of you know how and can take a sec to explain it I will post it asap. Thanks

I just used youtube to host my vids. It will take a while though. You have to sign up, then upload the video, fill in all of the info, wait for it to download it. Then when it'sdone downloading it, you have to wait like 10 minutes just for it to process it.

Hi,

So you are getting the GP version too... Mine is coming also. But too bad they do not have the type 2 body version in this first shipment.
