Default Should the body be off for first tank of break in?

I was wondering should i run my hpi gasser and redcat rampage without the body on for the first tank of fuel for break in? According to hpi running the first tank of fuel should be done gently. They also say that after the first tank you should be good to go to run it harder. I do understand and know they are much different then nitro engines and do not need the intense break in process like nitro vehicles. I also so many people on youtube doing the break in with the body on.

Any help or pointers would be appreciated. I plan to run Klotz as my main oil after break in.
