In case you didn't know, I just got back into the hobby after a long absence...wife and kid got in the way.
My first build was a shumacher cat sx witch went together flawlessly. Although I found it to be made of all the best materials I also think it too complex for anyone without a enginering degree. That being said I love it
So that brings me to my second build, the AE SC10, wich I started tonight. If you need to be a engineer to build the cat you need to be a mini person to build the sc10. I have never come across such small screws to hold the suspension pins in place...then again I've never seen a screw hold a pin in place. Even though its going together well and doesn't bind I do find it alittle on the lacking side, I know its inexpensive but pins with e-clips would have been nicer.....or even threaded pins can't be that expensive. The scews holding the pins had to be picked up using a tweezer???? Then I got to the transmision witch was solid and smooth as silk, I expected that from associated.
I asked you, the experts in this forum, on what motor to use and got good advice. Now I have more questions...Is it worth it to upgrade to aluminium suspension arms and do they use the same pin retainers?
Or better.....What upgrades make it a better ride?
