In that case you should be happy with the stock Tx, its not amazing but it gets the job done

Ahh what you're referring too is wheel offset, any 17mm rim will fit, but how much the wheel sticks out, or if its closer to the car, like these rims, the hub will connect closer to the back of the rim, and will cause the rim to stick out more, or you can have the hub connect close to the front of the rim and have the rim recessed into the body slightly. thats what they mean by deeper, but anything with a 17mm hex size should fit.

No Problem
That good news re the stock Tx

Thanks also for clearing up the offset.

Since I don't have the appropriate tools for the buggy, I decided to order the necessary tools I need today
1 x small 4 way wrench - $1.39 USD (shipped)
1 x large 4 way wrench - $6.49 (shipped)
1 x set of 4 hex head screw drivers - $8.82 (shipped)

BTW, someone on RCCanda, just informed me that Purolator have been removed as a shipping option from US warehouse. That's a real bummer as I had planned on ordering a few extra larger capacity lipos for the buggy.

Talking of batteries, what's the average run time can one expect from the supplied dual 2S 20C 3600mah Lipos? .. 10 minutes perhaps? Thanks again!
