Wiring is run and cleaned up. I cut out the side of the switch holder to mod it to fit the quicrun power switch and made a little stick pack using the battery cover. I bet some less weights are in my future. .... she is completely ceramic bearings throughout now and I need shocks and I'm going to throw some blu tac In the rear diff with some hard drifting tires to see what happens.

First test run went great shocks are definitely needed. Also the shell is so low it was scraping on any uneven surface so I ran a piece of electrical tape around the body and it's way better now and won't get scratched up.

So I found a set of aluminum dampers in my parts box. Oil filled adjustable but for 1 18 scale. I measured and they were same length as stock so I mocked them up but they needed a washer to snug em up. I found the perfect use for the plastic bearings that come with it ! Anyone see a problem with this before I do the rear....seems much improved already, no more tiny shaky bouncy up front...those stock springs like to hop around.

Nice idea. That looks to be ok and they are compact.

Hey yea they work great. Huge difference .I'll order a proper set for the m06. I just ordered these and I feel the chassis will be done with these few more parts . Everything is pretty impressive on this. I may add camber arms bit I don't feel it's needed here.

Aloy. Aloy. Pure aloy design

Yea I don't really believe in full alloy chassis but a few key pieces are essential. I like plastic as it flexes as opposed to breaks. I hope the steering kit gives me a bit more dialabilty. I usually just do dogbones driveline hexes and steering stuff. The rest I leave.

Yep. Aloy is nice but less flexible. I made a ff01 with a lot of gpm alloy parts but only for fun. I never ran it. And I was desappointed by my full alloy mini rs4 kit. Your parts are only necessary spares.

Oh nice . I'll be tapping your off-road knowledge soon as I want a crawler. How did you like the mini rs4 ? My LHS has one but I don't know very much about it. Is it a belt drive?

That is a hpi nitro mini RS4. It is an on road rc.
4x4 belts drive with a m chassis size. A lot of agility and a «big» engine. A famous chassis. Mine has a civic body+ a mercedes A klass.
