Challenges Faced
All the electronics have been replaced so far excluding the motor. This car also comes with very cheep cast steel hubs which 1 already broke and the HPI brand servo, receiver, & radio were a joke. 400 dollar RTR kit with almost 1/2 grand into it, most of it fixing HPI’s shotty parts.(Rims & decals look okay). 85% repair rate off a hand full of runs. Not Good
