Racing Fighter black edition, comes with bearings, turnbuckles, light gearshafts, steel driveshafts, 19t pinion, and a tble02 esc. Bought some black wheels, as the stock red won't go with my colour scheme.
Comes with torque tuned 540, gonna run NiMH til I get back into handling a buggy again, then go hunting more power, not crazy more, but the right amount of more.
Oh, and it's cheaper than the stock Racing Fighter.
I think that's part of the joy of it, the build, also helps you know what to look for if summat goes/sounds wrong. And like you say, you can go for it with the painting of the shell. The DT03 I've ordered isn't available til end of next month, but I'm already looking at hop ups/ mods, just because I am one of life's tinkerers, so bikes n buggies are perfect hobbies for me.
