Build Thread B6.4 Kit NoS

[Jerold]

I currently have 1 and a half B6.3 buggies. The first one is a B6.3D I traded an SCX24 for it. It needed some work and it's functional but truth be told it's a bit of a franken buggy.

So I picked up a roller B6.3 (carpet) version on ebay. It's a local car and lots of extras. Swapped over the electronics.

I was left unsupervised last week and bought kit on eBay for a "new" RC10B6.4 kit. It is opened, but unassembled.

And started putting it together this morning.

1st thing I noticed is Bag #8 is missing. Reached out the seller and he is checking on it. Bag #8 is the turnbuckles, and totally replaceable, but still a pain.
Next thing is the servo horn that comes with the 160SS is too long.

Putting it together, some of the little screws are really hard to recognize. Are the 10mm or 12 mm. Or even worse is the tiny set screws. My eyes are that calibrated.

Got through Bag 3 today, mostly correct.

• Still waiting on the correct servo horn and the alum bell crank, so I will get the pull the front end apart again.
• Also not sure I got the right set screws in the right holes. Will need to double check that.

Things I need to figure out.

1. Paint scheme. Want something high visibility but not too complex to paint.
2. The 3025 different settings for the suspension. Starting with the default setup and will work from there.
3. Shock Oils the default is 35wt front and 30wt rear. Not sure what is good?
4. Is there anything I'm missing. Don't know what I don't know.

Thoughts on paint? Some ideas from AI.
