salundy I also need spare parts. The axle on the drive shaft is broken. There is the threaded bolt mit wheel nut has broken off. Its not important to get spare parts in european regions, but in general.

salundy It's depended of your choice. This car can be bought with one, two, or three batteries. I prefer to by this car with one battery and also buy two 3S accu 4000-5000 mAh. Believe me, you never want to install the original 2S accu. All 3S accu's let fly this car. ;-)

salundy yes, shocks, diffs, and gearbox are metal. But you have to fill them with oils. the shock have wrong oil and diffs are dry. So the performance is very bad in original condition. I prefer in shocks 750-950 CPs and the diffs should have 50k-100k-50k oils (front-mid-rear).
