All is going very well!
So far I am very impressed with the quality of the plastics and overall layout of the components. The steering is very responsive, the spring dampening seems to be pretty good and all seems very controllable.
Though for testing I have been using 2s lipo, simply because I couldn't wait for my 4s to arrive and just had to have a go!
As you can see from the pictures, I have changed out the wheels and tyres for VP Pro Condor XX pre-glued wheels and tyres, and also a JQ wing for the aggressive styling!
The stock motor is only 2000kv, though depending on the speeds I get on 4s I may opt in for a castle creations 2200kv.
It wasnt long before I felt the need to call in the big guns! Savox 12kg, although the stock 9kg servo was a nice addition, It just wasn't up to speed.
I also found deep down under the crap in my toolbox a set of DE Racing read skid plates for the Mugen MBX5. I was told by a guy that they would fit so I went ahead and installed one of those!
Sure enough, they fit. Slightly out of line so not perfectly but what can you expect.
Already taking a few scratches from just running around on the dirt.
