Default Few Questions

Hi guys I am new too this forum and I have a few questions about my new car. I ordered my Savage SS last week and it is going to get here Monday! I am very excited. I will get the SS, I have also bought a MotorSaver filter, RDL Hump pack, Hitec 625MG with .13 transit time and 100 oz of torque(for the steering).. and a Hitec 645MG for throttle which is .20 sec @ 130 oz of torque... IS there anything else I need to get this thing going? I will be running SideWinder 20% thru it and is this all I need? Thanks in advance!

The SS does not come with radio, nor reciever. Why the hell would you put a 100oz servo on the steering and a 130oz on the throttle? It must have been a typo. Put the 130oz servo on the steering dude![sm=thumbup.gif][sm=bananahead.gif]

Ya but the one with more torque is .20 sec which is slow but I guess I will do that instead! I have an XR3 and those servo's and is there anything else you guys would recomened?
