I will post pics of my build here.
I'm glad that several people on this forum have a lot of experience with this kit and am open to hints, tricks and suggestions as I build. Hopefully it will help others in the future decide to get one and answer questions they may have as well.
The first thing I noticed was how heavy the box is. When Ben at RCPit.net handed it to me, I almost dropped it. Once I opened the box and got everything laid out I was impressed with the quality of the parts I looked at. The chassis is light and well machined. I was also stunned by the thickness of the body. Its THICK! My wife said it felt like a turtle shell.
One thing I didn't care for was the thinness of the parts bags. Several of them had holes worn in them from rubbing together during shipment. I have several parts that belong in the bags rolling around the bottom of the box. Give me an inch and I want a mile. I felt upset when I saw a standard 3mm Allen wrench in the box and not a Huddy like the rest of them.
Here are a few picks to get the thread started. Ill post more as I get them. Again please feel free to post your comments relating to the build.
