I happily recieved my Cane yesterday
Cant wait to beak her in.
I picked up quite few hopups [sm=greedy.gif] some of which Im still waiting on in the mail, they include:
~ Futaba 3PM-FM TX/RX
~ Redcat RotoStart/SH 28 backplate
~ Racers Edge 1400mah 5 cell rx pack
~ Venom Fail Safe
~ Dynamite Black Aluminum Servo Horns
~ Ofna Truggy Wheels Black
~ Proline Badland MTR Tires
While Im waiting on parts, Im gonna do a teardown and locktite it all, seal up the motor.
I have some 40 and 50 weight shock oil good brands losi and Team Associated, Im thinking 40 weight up front and 50 in the back? any suggestions?
I also am wondering whether I should install the rotostart now or wait thill after break in?
Appreciate all suggestions and comments

Nice looking buggy. I didn't realize the pro came with so much alluminum. Does that make it heavier than the regular hurricane? Lotsa bling!

I had mine for awhile now and onething to look for is the upper front arms, not sure if they upgrade
the adjustment screw but they snap like twig prity easy. the worse part is that they dont sell those adjusters seperatley
you have to buy the plastic arms and take the adjuster off. They seem to be stronger because I flip my buggy 360 end over end
and the one that I did not change snap it did not even bend to show stress. the one from the plastic arm did not break.

Thanks for the heads up! Im breaking it down as we speak to loctite it all and I noticed those upper turnbuckles arent even tightened from the factory, could also be easier to break if they wernt snug to begin with.

Had it up and running tonight, ran 2 tanks through it then it got dark. Been doing the heat cycling break in, starts right up 1st or 2nd pull everytime.
