Couldn't resist with the price of these on Hobbyking at the moment.
So i sold some stuff and placed my order.
The Hobbyking basher sabertooth arrived on Wednesday with some other stuff i ordered including a clear berserker shell to paint and a selection of spares.
I'm off work this week as i had a knee operation so I've had some time to kill so I've painted and reinforced the new shell, filled the three diffs with oil ( they only had a little grease in them), changed the springs and shock oil (it was under-sprung and the shock oil was more like water) and fitted new stronger hinge pins (a known week point).
Now I'm just waiting for my receiver and flysky gtc3 to arrive can't wait to run it, seems a really solid bit of kit.
Got 2 x 6000mah 2s lipos to run in it and also have a 21kg metal geared servo i can swap in if the stock one is as crap as I expect.
