Alx, updated the carbon tray to the final look. Absolutely love it and it's complete minus servo setup and engine. Added the pull killswitch to delete the on off switch entirely

Thanks man, got those black shocks from John also. Appreciate the heads up on those

Nope, haven't put those in until the engine arrived. I assume the pipe will mount somewhere in their, then I'll mount it all up. Guess I could do the one side

 

[PortCityRC]

Awesome man, glad that worked out.
