OFNA Rear Torque Brace Mod
I found that the screw that supports the rear torque brace on my Ofna Hyper 7 PCR Pro is not very strong. After several bash sessions, I noticed that this screw taking a beating…

Testing
The instructions get you rolling pretty quickly and should cause no real trouble for the inexperienced. The two longer braces stretch the entire length of the chassis and protect the engine head from damage. Two other braces complete the look going across the center of the chassis. The kit also includes aluminum chassis plates that replace the stock plastic ones. The kit makes it look like you just changed the entire chassis, a nice trick for your friends.

Just say no to glitching
The bottom of your receiver case is a good home for sand, dirt, rocks, and dust, and since receivers are not completely sealed, it isn’t hard for this kind of debris to make it in. Junk in the bottom of your receiver case can spell disaster if left untreated. The debris can make contact with the receiver’s circuit board and short out the components, creating radio interference or glitching.
