tt-01 is a great starter car. its just the basics, can drift out of the box. if you want more adjustablity go with something like a tb-02 which comes with ball diffs, ball bearings, aluminum drive shaft and other goodies right out of the box.

no not really....i work on cars for a living so its not hard to me...but an electric kit is fairly straightforward....nitro kits are a little harder to put together.

if you can wait you can get the tt-01d witch is a kit thats set for drift. i has alot of the accesories you would want fot a regular tt but you need a controller and reciver [comes with ecs and moter]. im planning on getting it when it is aviable on towwer. you still may want to make abs wheels.

How Easy: a Mate and I put my 2nd TT-01 Together from Scratch and Dialled in in 2Hours.
If you ever played with Lego or Mechanno then you can assemble a TT-01
My Advice is to buy the Hop Ups prior to Your Assembley.
Get the Ball Bearing kit and Alloy prop shaft before you reven think of building one.. It Saves an Aweful lot of Time..
Most TT-01 Kits come with a TEU101BK ESC and a 27T Silvercan motor but you will need to by a 2-Channel Pistol Grip Controller with Reciever and Servo to make the kit complete..
