Okay, I will be sending an HPI F10 stock kit without a speed control or battery which includes:
- Stock rear gear diff (exposed)
- Friction center damper with stock black spring (not oil filled)
ISSUES
- Looking at the top of the car, the main plastic chassis where the barge board attaches on the right side is broken. I have a spare main plastic chassis that I will install/replace before sending (pics of car show the broken part). I will include the broken main chassis.
- Looking at the bottom of the chassis, the t-plate at the left rear/left rear hole (by the spur gear) is cracked/broken. This is one of 3 holes that are used for an optional plastic rear diffuser which was not included with this kit & I do not have. Here is a link to the optional part for reference (http://www.hpiracing.com/en/part/104203)
Upgrades
- Ball bearings on both front axles & rear axle
- (2) Front & (2) Rear HPI F10 (S) compound tires mounted on black 12 spoke wheels
- (2) Front & (2) Rear HPI F10 (M) compound tires mounted on black 12 spoke wheels
Extras
- Losi MSX Digital Servo (LOSB0818). I have not fully tested it before sending. IIRC it moves on its own when you turn the car on, then centers itself and works fine after that.
- Extra main chassis, see issues above
- Plastic motor mount (ride side of pod)
- Tamiya 540J 'Silver Can' motor with 14 tooth 48 pitch gear (installed in rear pod)
Kit Parts
- kit manual, paper
- 6-cell or 2s lipo/stick pack battery braces (loose)
- 4-cell or 1s/2s shorty lipo pack battery braces (loose)
- 75t spur with diff gears (loose)
- 87t spur (installed on axle)
- #1 & #2 rear axle ride height spacers (loose), & #0 (installed in rear pod)
- Futaba & Hitech servo adapters (loose). JR adapter (installed on servo)
- 17 tooth 48 pinion (loose)
- plastic rear servo mount/front shock mount piece (102820)
- (2) Front & (2) Rear kit tires, not mounted
BODY
- HPI 102869 Formula Ten Type 016c body painted Pactra RC285 Bright Yellow with Penzoil Decals
- Stock rear gear diff (exposed)
- Friction center damper with stock black spring (not oil filled)

Okay a few more pics.
Once I get everything boxed up I will post a pic of the inside of the box since I will be partially taking the car apart to fit better & prevent any damage (since this is a long/narrow car).
(Edit). I thought I could get everything into a USPS Medium Flat Rate box. I thought I had then I realized I forgot to put the body in. I will swing by the post office tomorrow morning and get a large box and get it shipped out on Friday 1/3/2014.

Update on shipment: 1/6/2014
I sent everything on Friday using (1) Large USPS Priority Mail box with a scheduled delivery date of Monday January 6, 2014
Tracking #:
9505 5000 3086 4003 0004 86
When I tracked the package thru USPS.com, status was as follows:
January 6, 2014 , 10:13 am | Insufficient Address | EAST ELMHURST, NY 11369
I contacted the East Elmhurst Post Office (718-803-8968) around 4pm to see if they could locate the package to update the address, but they couldn't. The recipient also stopped by the post office, but they told him that it was returned to sender.
After checking the photos of the box I took before shipping on Friday, I left off the street number - my mistake.
Once I get the package back, I will resend at my cost.

It is showing as scanned in the system en route to sorting facility (https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfi...28534011000253)
