The 705 was my first ever RC car and putting it together was great fun. When I got a little stuck, I asked the good people here and got the answers I needed. Now that I've been running it for about 7-8 months, the driving has improved a lot and I can start to learn more about setup (i.e. now that the car last more than 1 hour without needing a major rebuid due to poor driving )
To this end, I also bought myself last month a Tamiya Surikarn EVO III - comparing the two cars in terms of building, it was pretty much the same.

Manuals can always be improved and I'm sure this is one of Serpent's goals.

I didn't find the manual bad, sometimes, though occasionally a diagram wasn't as clear as it could have been, but asking here always got my answer

Cheers, Mark.

Yes Mark! When I decided to get the 705 a few months ago, I read through almost all the post on the thread, and yours were particularly interesting!

It was fun following you building phase to the driving phase to the breaking and back to driving!! ANd it was nice to see the people here always friendly and helpful. That was a main reason why I got the 705 and why I still log on to rctech! Thanks everyone!
