I need some insight.
Ft. Lauderdale area.
I am 99% done with the built ! At this point I just need to place electronics.
I need some help with my Arta body however,
As you can see from the pictures the front wheel well lines up with the car's axle / wheels, but at the back it doesn't. Not only that, on the rear, the shock tower prevents the body from sitting low.
I guess I will have to cut some slits on the body to let the points on the shock tower come through to let me sit the body correctly, but my biggest concern is that the rear wheel well does not center with the rear axle/wheels.
Also, Take a look at the small bearing to the left of the servo turnbuckle. Do you guys remember it being in the kit? / I can seems to find it in the instructions and I am afraid I missed it.. or maybe it belongs to something else and got mixed in with my kit parts.
Thanks guys, I cannot wait to run my car... just need to work out some little kinks. I also have several silver spacers left over anyone know where they go?

This is because of how the rear sus mount is made. the TB03 rear mount is MUCH lower. You may want to try the carbon mount. It is pretty low. It rubs against my NSX body, but it is low enough to have a 2-3 mm gap.If you run ANY other body, (except the 350R) you will most likely not have that issue.
try the carbon rear tower first.

WHY!?!?!? use supports to secure the battery AND make a stiffer chassis! OBVIOUS engineering flaw!

re: wheelbase discrepancy... what does your wheelbase measure to?
you can fiddle with the spacers on the hingepins to affect wheelbase
also... what setting have you used on your the hingepin split blocks & rear?
they can be set as "1A" or "1XA" - if you've gone 1A wheelbase is longer

May I know what's wrong in having the battery secure by tape? I see most of the high end tourings are using fiber tapes to secure the car. Why a stiffer chassis? Have you tried this chassis?
Sorry for asking so many questions, I just bought a ta06 pro and want to get a graphite chassis
