ORIGINAL: Ashalak

All current Hyper8 Pro's are coming ARTR with most of the chassis assembled for you, all you need to do is mount your engine/clutch, build your shocks up, attach the wing, install your radio and paint your bodyshell. I suspect that there will be no alterations to the way the kit comes and I do believe that it will continue to come through this way rather than being sold exclusively as a full kit. The Hyper7 Pro-UK has been sold this way since it was released, which was the last of the Hyper7 'Pro' kits to be released, the way this car has been supplied has not changed, so I see no reason why the Hyper8 would either.

That's interesting Ashalak, I didn't know that about the other buggys (I'm actually new to buggys). I just heard that they won't continue to come 80% assembled after the first few shipments. I probably heard that from someone who knows less than I do

Question for you, on the rear wing mounts, where you put the locknuts inside the little window/holes on the wing... stay is it called? Is this normal for 1/8 buggies? I thought this was a bit weird. Not sure how I'd ever get the wing off unless I tried to jam something in there to keep the nut from spinning.
