Received my TQ order #2 today with a new lower front bumper to replace the one that shattered last race. I splurged for Christmas and grabbed the R1 motor mount while I was placing an order and it all went together great.

I'm still using the stock S1 plastic bushings and plastic spacers and I have just a tick of play in the center spool which is perfect. I have the flanged bearings but haven't felt the need to use them. Maybe I did something right, or inadvertently wrong but there is virtually no slop.

I did have to remember to add the 1mm spacers on top of the R1 motor mount.
