RE: D8T Feedback?
HI, this is my first post here, but I have been running a d8t for a month now and just getting past my first gallon of fuel. Just thought I'd let you know how its working for me. Overall it seems pretty tough, very easy to put together (great instructions). Although I did have a few gripes.
radio tray needs slightly modified to rout the servo wires without pinching them, I ended up running my steering servo wires outside the box and back into the receiver box.
go ahead and get the Hotbodies aluminum servo horn, I've heard the plastic one strippes out easy.
I've heard the rear hub carriers break and people have been replacing them with aluminum.
The wheels rub the steering rod ends so you have to dial out the steering, or buy Kyosho rod ends and ballswith a bend in the end of the rod so you can get your steering back.
Other than that its been a tank, i'm no expert driver by a long shot, but it handles great.
