The slider sticking out of the bottom was the ony thing I don't like about this hull.

Gearboxes broken in and I used PTFE bicycle chain lube. Covered with a plastic milk carton-

Watching with interest. I've got an older IR Heng Long G that I got for Xmas. Hoping to turn it into an 'A'.

Woz liking the milk carton trick for the gearboxes. I also use bicycle chain lube on my gears and this is a great way to keep it shielded and contained.
Tanks alot.... :wave:
