Default RE: TRF801X Build Thread

The switch is next. (A lot of racers will skip this step and using direct plug in instead)

I used the switch that came with the 4pk. You need to remove the original mount plate first. Add the rubber boot and supplied mount plate. The whole thing then slides into the radiobox bottom.

Take the top piece and measure out a good location for your Rx. Servo tape the Rx inside, and screw the top piece on. Route the antenna wire and snap in the radio/battery cover and we are done.

You can also mount a flat battery pack to the front to help steering if needed. All the parts are supplied in the kit. I found opening the battery box once engine was mounted is a pain on this car. (Due to the angled position, the cooling head leaves you very little space to work with.)

Now you can attach the entire assembly on the radio tray posts. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of this step.
