Default Check it out

Check the play / As long as its not to bad run it and keep a close eye on them !

I try to not let my kyosho get over 1/32 " of a turn .
Much more and you risk stripping ..
If you are going to break in engine ,, and take it " easy " it wont
be as much of a risk .
Hope this Helps Ron

Actually thinking back.. I think I did... I followed the directions to the "T".. wonder how I missed it.

Maybe I missed something else.

No theres not much play at all. ITs all very tight.

Now I gotta do the shocks.. put up the radio tray and fuel tank bumper etc.. and I'm done

I dont have the RX/servos or the engine.. so gotta wait on that till day after or so..

Thanks for your help!!
