These are all the standard items every Lab kit comes with.
As you can see all the trick items you will ever want are included with the kit.

I wouldn't regard that as an option part, but more as a tuning part.
Some drivers prefer a blade type swaybar and some a wire type.

Guys, assembling my kit I think I run into a problem.
In the pics is my brake upper parts. The manual says the bearing should go inside the red plastic part (Cap16068). But there is no way. Looks like this part was made to go into the brake axle (Cap16013) and the carbon plate (Cap15008) directly, no bearing on the upside.
Or am I missing something?

Thank for the help!

You do not use a bearing on the top at all. Just in the chassis. The red top is what holds the brake cam in place. Then the lever over that and all should fit and be good. I do not have the manual in front of me, but that is how it should be off the top of my head. I will check the manual later.

DS, what is the lipo you use? Could not find one with the right dimentions.

The upper bearing is not used.
At first the plastic red piece was a piece of aluminum which needed a bearing, but Capricorn changed it to the plastic.
It still needs updating in the manual.
They have already revised the manual but there are still some things which need fixing.

Thankx for the rep dj.

The manual I received have the bearing part. Even a note that says "Insert ball bearing 5x8x2.5 in the botton side of the 2 part". The 2 part is the plastic one.
And the kit came with four bearings with this size, two for the rear wire anti-roll, I was guessing the other two for the brake assembly.

These are non-branded Lipo's which you have to wire yourself.
Originally these are meant for the small helicopters

The one you quoted is 34x56x12.5 and has a capacity of 800Mah
Fully charged it's enough for 1 hour of driving with two low profile servos.

The one in the picture below is 24x70x10 and has a capacity of 900mah
I switched to the one below because for next year I will be using the special motormount to add the required weight (car is 170 grams underweight) and this battery is even lower which allows me to put the fueltank pickup pretty much equal with the bottom of the chassis.
