Excited

I'm going to pick up the rest of my parts for my vta build I'm pumped. One thing extra I'm going to pick up is a good set of wrench and hex drivers! I'm not tearing into another rc vehicle with my regular tools! Too frustrating at times.

Got everything I wanted except I was got there later then expected and they had sold the last Novak ESC and motor combo I wanted so I put a down payment on a hobbywing justock combo they have coming in next week some time. This was a different hobby shop though. I also grabbed some spare front arms for a $1 off the Clearence table which is awesome cause I was going to order them off eBay cause I didn't have front spares just rears. I think I found a new lhs only thing is its an hour and a half away, but it has a nice on road indoor track and outdoor off road track. I forgot a new glow plug and lexan scissors and a body hole reamer can I use good sharp regular scissors?

You can use them, but the dedicated Lexan scissors work best. A body reamer is a must, I can tell you from painful personal experience. You can also score the lexan with an Exacto knife where you plan to cut it for a cleaner cut.

Yeah I like this body too much and it's my first time doing anything with clear body so if that's the case I'll just wait until next week to go grab some. I'm going to the hobby shop anyways to get the ESC and motor combo anyways. When you say score the body, you mean cut it close and finish it with the exacto knife?

Nvm I looked up what the scoring technique is, not sure what I want to try now.
