smoker replacement

Post by edpanzer »

Got a replacement smoker from the kind folks at rctank de through the post today my question is how do you lift the base plate to get at the fixing screws??? Do I need to remove the gearbox's?
What I thought would be a plug and play seems a bit more complicated :crazy: or am I missing the obvious?
Many thanks

Would of thought is just stuck down with double sided tape like they usually go with the rx18, of it is screwed to the plate you will have to remove the 4 screws underneath that hold the plate in to get at them dude
