I am going to post on this thread what I have learned and experienced as I run the truck.
This is all exclusive to my truck because you may experience different results so it is all IMO.
The exhaust is poorly supported, mine broke off.
The battery / CDI / receiver box is a rats nest.
The owners manual has incorrect carb base settings and HPI has updated them on there website.
Won't run well at all with Klotz Super 2 stroke oil but does OK with Stihl 2 cycle oil so don't waste your money.
It's a hopped up weed whacker motor so tune it as one, they don't rev like a nitro.
The shocks are to small for this size and weight truck.
I bought extra receiver batteries and went with 1600mah for longer run time.
All wheel nuts were loose out of the box, who knows what else isn't tight.
Have to adjust everything from brakes to carb and shift points.
