Very odd. I have several drive-shafts. All with pins.

Man I would love to drive this car but a 1000.00 price tag and low parts support is the deal breaker, the inovation in this car is just the best and from the videos i have seen it just looks like the old TC3 in performance and I think that was the best TC ever made . I will try to find one of these cars next year on the FS boards, or go back to Tamiya. TC is on a comeback in our area during the summer outdoors, can wait to do some real racing. but I do have to say this is one of the sickest TC on the market I hope more companies go back to shaft drive

818 or 1000.00 the price is to much for me, I will hope someone is getting rid of theirs and I will get a good deal but for now I will have to go with a 417X.

I dont really see price tag very high, the car is £490 and its fully aluminium parts.

If you compare to the likes of Xray then there car is £375 and does not have Ecs driveshafts and comes with plastic shocks, plastic spool outdrives, plastic hubs, no spring kit plastic lipo holders, This would easily overtake the price tag.

Just my thoughts on this matter everyone keeps bringing up.

Where from? what about import tax, bank transfer fees.

If your getting them for £490 I suggest you order 10 and put them on fleabay

Yes the deal is not so bad if you are in Europe. If you transfer in Euro the receiving fee is zero so bank charges are reduced. If you order in dollars you get charged at both ends. In my case I paid no import duty whatsoever, and as abe-racing has said its fully hopped up right out the box.

Xray 375+ ECS 70+ shocks 60 =505 ...

Parts support has not been poor at all, but not so quick due to bank transfer times. Once the payment is authorised the parts were here in the UK from Taiwan in 3 days.

For sure its not as easy to run as an Xray or Tamiya.. I have an Xray and it is a brilliant car, I absolutely love it. I also like to try something less conventional, the A700, I like it also.

Its personal choice what car you run..Personally I am glad there is someone out there to challenge the norm, great innovation !
