Now here we have the brass on the left rear arm and the left front hub to add a little bit of inside weight and traction

Next comes the Spur Brass hub, This helps with the momentum of the car and caring the speed through the corner, It also smooths out the natural cogging effect that some motors with stronger magnets have. Ultimately making it smoother to go off then on throttle through the corners.

Then we add the steering servo ( just a savox ) then the Fgr4b Flysky ( NB4+) Reciever , and finally the Hobby wing Xr10Pro ESC

Up next is body cutting trimming and then painting ......
