The only thing you have to remember with is to make sure the rods are spot on the right size, otherwise it will drift to one side, and apparently, the center shaft should be filled with the hardest shock oil possible, but I've never gotten mine to work properly, so going back to my 201 with the upgraded 3racing chassis.
I'm getting slightly used F109. F103 is really hard to get and they need some upgrades out of the box anyway (I've seen guy here having to tighten motor few times a run - I had screwdriver in my pocket for that reason, due to used materials on motor mount).
