finally ups came 7 pm i went out in the dark to begin the break in.


heat cycle is what i do usually for every engine i owned


so far so good i made a small mistake myself in the gear area but quickly resolved it, now i have the body and tires on and battery on charge for tomorrow.


Did a 1 full tank so far gonna continue more tomorrow


What i can say is WOW the size in person does really make you say WOW


So far i am happy for the $ i spent


Going to stop by tomorrow at my hobby store to get some stuff.


Also i read the engine manual it says 90-93 for fuel i used 93 premium is that okay? i was going to get 87 regular but i saw that and got 93 what do you guys use?
 
also i am using regular mineral oil for break in period after that i have my synthetic klots oil that i will use

wheel bearing and holders will be ordered real real soon along with some servos just in case!

Higher octane fuels don't give any improvement in performance at all IMO as they are not high compression motors. So run what you whats at the pump.
