Mine arrived yesterday, many thanks to Hobby Co sending it out for saturday am delivery
I built most of it last night, but I'm no good at building shocks without diaphragms, so I'm going to enlist the help of one of my friends who's been building and racing 1/10 buggies for near on 20 years
It's a lovely kit, the only things I found were a little bit of play in the front arms (which I shimmed out using some of the shims in the kit) and a little bit of play in the rear uprights which need shimming slightly. I also found a bit of movement in the steering assembly, don't know if anyone else has noticed but the bearings on the cross bar aren't a very tight fit into the cross bar, mine keep moving slightly. I'll run a tiny bit of superglue round the inside of the holes to close them up a bit then press the bearings in. The front of the body shell is a bit of a pig to cut out as well.
If I get a second body shell I'll take the body mounts off and just use velcro to stick the body to the undertray.

PS I noticed most of you just attach thumbnails to the bottom of your posts, can someone explain how to do that, easy enough for any numpty (ie me
) to understand
