Default x6 squared chassis

Just about to build my x6 and noticed that the front 2 cell locators
"where they are filled in " are all sort of cracked and there is a very small hole through to the other side.

is this the norm.

The area of the two cell slots is VERY thin at the shallowest part but it should NOT have a hole. This can occur occasionally if the graphite does not fully flow through the mold and we have only seen this on one chassis so far (happened to be one we had sent to Hong Kong!!!) from here in the UK.

At the end of the day the hole is NOT right, but it will not effect performance, durability or stength in any way (since the box section around the two cell slot is what provides the core strength in that area, BUT if you wish for us to swap it over for you then please just pop it back and we will get it exchanged by return of post immediatley.
