Ouch, Doug had a big ole glass of Hater-aid today. Botajell is a cool guy, and does a lot for this hobby. Plus he has more Losi crap than most hobby shops. Not exactly a clone king. Are his rovans even clones? The 3 ive seen look like rovan originals to me.Congrats if you like ?

hateraid? not really, hes speaking facts. all botajell does nowadays is push all the rovan clone 
an pretty much never gives credit to the orig creator (lets alone support them) yet gasses up rov/km for a rip off product. I got sick of all the fake poop an unsubbed aswell as doug

The Botajell 2-3 yrs ago was great. Supported the real poop and got the word out, now he sold himself out to the clone/fake poop ??

He definitely is the Rovan King right now but he still supports Scot Finlay, Bartolone, Losi, Primal, etc. He's doing a ton for the hobby and promoting hobby stores. His videos are a lot of fluff right now but you have to respect him.

So a couple pics and updates on the build. Installed aluminum tank holders, rear suspension cantilevers, and RC Max fuel disconnects and rear crud deflectors.
The clutchbell to T90 screw backed out on me just as @madgreek described. I ended up replacing that screw with a 30mm screw and it looks to have solved that problem.
Heres a pic of the DIY stand holding up the Vekta also
And the last time I took it out the screws that hold the brake and throttle linkage to the servo horn backed out on me, so I had to come up with a fix. Wounds licked and ready to get back out...weather permitting?

I must say shes turned out beautifully! I really like the paint scheme. Think you've done top notch work with her. Just as a side note, if you've got a bit of paint left over give your intake a shot. Think the way you have it cut out it would blend right into the body.

Thanks Sean. I hear what ya saying with the paint, but I kinda like the bit of bling peeking out
