I'm waiting for the carbon chassis and buying the hop ups for that. also some advice that I have gotten from other peoples builds is get yourself a 3mm tapping bit out of a tap and die set and run that into all the screw holes first with some light oil that way the holes don't heat up and get threaded when you screw the screws in.
Its all good bud, I though it was user error on the Apple but i cant download it on my Lappy running windows either.. It's frustrating to say the least as i want to order some stuff so the mods may begin.
I'm still waiting for the chassis, i bought it local second hand for a great price. The seller was great and really helpful. At one stage i was going to buy new but for the price he was asking i couldn't let it pass. Like you he mentioned that it was a pain seating screws. When i get new diff housings for my crawlers i run a tap through them first, so i figured i'd just do the same with the D3. Luckily i'll be straight onto the mods (if the chassis is in good shape).
Yeh ill grab some stuff for it Mainly looking at Pulleys and a oneway for now and steering (wide angle cvd + steering rack once released) or i'll fab something up for the steering. I'm keen on the chub delete mod with the KPI mod also. i'll see what i can do with stock parts first but if a no go i'll start hunting some parts. i'll keep an eye out on what the carbon chassis comes up like also. I just hope the CF chassis has a few battery mounting options. Worse comes to worse i'll cad something up and have it cut but id rather buy already done as the price is awesome.
I'm going to jump on the lathe now and cut a milo tin up for my crappy r2 hobbies s13 body gotta have a Stainless exhaust... lol Man it looks like Stevie Wonder lined up the graphics on it:wtf:
