In my opinion, everything out of the box works. I just prefer the King Headz motor mount because of the mesh being no hastle, and the servo horns I prefer aluminum opposed to plastic.

Electric, I went with the Tekno V4 chassis on my RC8T. I am very happy with that setup. Haven't done the homework on the RC8.2 conversion yet.....dang thats another $1500......LOL

I was wondering how they came up with 106. I saw that it was setting on the arm and not the droop screw on my buggy as well, I just haven't had time to dremel the arm yet. You should be able get the full 106 by converting to the old droop screw and unscrewing the shock end a few turns.

Make sure you didnt install the diff backwards.

And the wheels will turn in opposite directions if there's enough clearance. That should be RAD!

I picked my 8.2 up yesterday and will start building today when I get off work. I've been reading the issues you guys have encountered during your builds. I guess I'll deal with these issues once I encounter them.

Buggy looks good, cant wait to start the build on mine. I see RM and some others using the stock plastic horns, any issues with this? I have used the stock horns from other kits before only to strip them .

I've used them for 3+ years, and never had a problem. You should be set!

I currently run the Serpent and it's a great car, very reliable, very high quality. I'm switching to the 8.2 currently. Both great cars! Although I will say the parts and parts availability for the AE are a lot easier to deal with.

+1 the servo horns are great. I have had the same servo throttle horn on my buggy for 2 years. Associated makes the best stock servo horns. I buy them and I dont even run associated lol
