Xray XB4 original #2

Continue the build and found more screw problem - one of the wheel hex lock screw has no thread.

Again, minor problem but very unusual in my experience when building RC kits from Xray. 

All provided ball bearings are smooth as usual, require a bit of thin bearings oil, and drive train is very smooth too. 

Follow the instruction to use 10k oil in from gear diff and 5k in the rear, slippery clutch set to a point where hand can move the spur slowly while both side of the output cups are locked. 

The steering posts are well designed and engineered, not much play after build consider it is just plastic. 

Old TC style anti roll bars, not as smooth as today design. Remember to setup its left and right balance during the low arm build steps.



Shocks are well designed and user-friendly to build left and right balance shocks.
