Hi all, I sent a message to Andrew haya and he says the suspension only pivots.

Doesn’t look as good as a Tamiya one but then for under $300 I wouldn’t expect it to be.

Tamiya don't do an easy 8

Hmmm odd! We have buyers saying it works properly, the maker saying they do by the uk seller saying they don't. Wonder if Haya has got some early ones before it was sorted

got my pressie yesterday tom, mine compresses ,but Andrews vid shows them pivoting so I must have got a later production ?

[tomhugill]

Where's yours from Stu? Also nice to see you back posting on here.

[cannedheat]

got it off Andrew tom ?

Suspension most certainly compresses both shocks plus pivots. Mine is new production that I picked up Saturday at Hooben's workshop here in Hangzhou.

I test fit a set of IMPACT T26 tracks to mine last night but am waiting to get metal drive wheels since dare not attempt anything except a short test run.

Just curious, are the tires made of rubber?

Xiaoshan,
Good morning,
Any news on when the new production types will be available in the U.S.? Also, kit form or complete RTR? Thank you in advance,
regards,
Painless

No idea when they'll hit the States & doubt they'll be offered as a kit. Didn't ask but its designed for factory assembly as you'd expect with any HL products.

Regarding wheels, they're are all plastic. Perhaps MATO or someone else will noticed & see an opening for parts.
