Need to find out if someone fixed the Taigen hull ,front is wrong. HL was easy as its plastic

: Sprocket is low and too far back

: Trumpeter sprocket and chain further forward , HL after the fix. Found the fix on a rc forum

Think i might have to buy the stronger wire upgrade for the suspension it looks as if the hull has sagged. The HL panther was easy as the hull is plastic , changing the sprocket position on the Taigen will not be an easy fix due to the metal front.

: Hull is lower compared to the Trumpeter and sprocket needs to go forward and up.

.
The PE sprue was too fragile so started to replace the block holder and the tool rack, was easy to bend out of shape . Found some brass strip the correct size much stronger.
