Yes indeed. Radio, servos and motor.

Unfortunately I lost a 2.5mm nut that is proving hard to source! Hint - use threadlock on the steering arms! (I didn't want to to begin with until I had set up the steering etc.)

Looks great!

Here is mine at the rolling chassis stage:

And the body shell straight out of the spray booth


When I am home next month I will show a photo of the finish car.

What radio gear, servos and motor do you all recommend? I still need to fit that.

If you phone the company that supplied some of the fittings (not sure I can mention on the forum?) they will sell you all you need...I am sure there are a few options. Given my one is not mine and actually my 7 year old son's we kept the costs down but its quality kit.
