And break in is complete! Runs great! Still running her rich but she’s got lots of power! Love it!?

handles like a dream! Never even offered to flip lol but it is a little damp here... did a great job of mowing my back yard ?

Now she needs a bath... I blew most of it off but she’s all dirty

awesome!! nothing like building a new kit.

I hate my rc's being dirty but it is what they were built to do I guess lol

glad you like it. the 5ive-b steering is crazy for such a large kit

I absolutely love it!

It steers easier than anything I’ve ever driven.. when you want it to turn it just freakin turns! No pushing... turns on a dime!

Makes me wanna put duel steering on my 2.0 ?

Just seems odd to me that for the B you need a CY engine cover.. the 2.0 uses a zenoah

Now to decide on a paint scheme ?

Are the mount holes not been change on the 2.0?

I’m guessing not.. since I tried using the original engine cover from my 2.0 on the B and the cover holes didn’t line up.. so I swapped it out for a CY cover I had in my parts bin...

I kinda figured they would be the same.. guess that’s what I get for figuring huh.... ?

New 5t 2.0 comes with zen = zen cover
5b has the same mount holes as 5t1/1.5 = cy

ahhh... I see! ? makes sense... thanks for clearing that little brain tickler up for me!

On another note... in an effort not to cut up my body... would wrapping the pipe with header wrap keep it from melting?

Just a thought ?
 
dougstar said:
Still need a load of air flow so a warp will help with melt. The motor blows all hot air in the shell need to get that out :unsure:(y)

Yeah... definitely gonna cut out all the ventilation holes I can..
