4. get the orange weller iron. cheap and HOT. i've always used it. here's a link - http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...FQTd4AodhlcApA
5. you should have enough wire to get it all done with what they send, but if you need more, buy 12 gauge.

Good luck!
Thanks for the answer. I'm gonna go with the 15t and use the spur gear it came with. I'm also gonna try the solder iron you said. If it doesn't work out ill get a different one. Beside the lipo I have what lipo you guys are using to race with?

Also no need for the motor spacer at the back it will hit your motor and jack it out of alignment when the chassis flexes. I'm building mine as we speak.
I also heard something about not using the motor spacer. I'm thinking about taking it off. I'm almost done just need the 12 gauge wires. Going to pick some up so I can solder these wires

Any other Info would be appreciated. Wheelman your buggy look Great.
