I have just taken delivery of mentioned hull. I'm going to post photos of it from out of the box and as I build it up. I figure some of you guys might be interested and may be thinking of getting one.
From what I can see in the box (not taken it out yet), the gear boxes are installed. From previous emails with a Germany supplier, I believe that the ratio is 5:1. I'm not sure if bigger motors will be able to occupy the space the current ones take up.
I have seen questions around the internet about attaching the upper and lower hulls together. There are claws that look like they fit into a couple of the upper hull screw holes. There is also a spring loaded bar running across the rear of the lower half. So I guess these two are related.
All of the suspension units need some assembly it seems (I've not had one in my hand to look at) and then fitting onto the hull.
The bit that protrudes from the back of the hull, under the exhaust needs to be installed as there is currently a hole in it's place. I supposed Asiatam have their reasons for not making it part of the hull in a single piece.
There are a couple of other loose bits that need attaching, but I don't know about those just yet.
There is a sealable bag of gloop supplied too. I'm guessing it is some kind of glue. I don't know how sticky it is yet or what it is for exactly.
It has a bit of weight to it as well. I'm guessing just over a kilo. Factor in the wheels, tracks, speaker and top half etc, it should gain a nice bit of weight.
That is it so far. I'll get some photos up here as soon as I can.
