actually other than the engine mounts and the flex problems the engine mounted up pretty easily.
My .21 NRS42 was even more of a challenge because I eleminated all the front drive which made it soo light if you whacked the throttle at any speed it would instantly wheelie or do a backflip.
I ended up mounting a wing on the rear, moving the RX pack to the nose and making a front spoiler for the nose plus I mounted a set of foams that were made orignally for an RC10gt. After those mods it Hooked like crazy and was very controlable. Tragically the RX failed mid run and the thing went full speed into a curb and because I had pulled all the bracing out of the front to make it as light as possible. well it really made a taco out of the chassis.. this pic I had removed the engine and servos thats it.
