I worked ont he CV a little last night. Pulling it back out I noticed the set screw was gone completely. At least I have a few extras of the size needed from the removed nitro stuff. I'm running into some trouble with binding on the CV when I put the set screw all the way down to the pin. I didn't feel like tearing into it too much last night so maybe this weekend I'll pull one of the other CV's and compare the feel to make sure it is right.
Parts from HPI/HB came in last night. They sent me the wrong steering arms so I'll have to talk with them again to see if they are willing to send me a set of the machined ones not the cast ones. C-hubs without installing them appear to have a similar amount of slop in the kingpin holes. This may be normal. I'll have to swap them out while I am tearing everything apart to see if it makes a difference.

I have a role of industrial velcro and have been thinking about putting some in there for extra assurance the battery is not going anywhere. The Neu 30C 4100 barely fits in the RC-Monster battery tray so I don't think it is going to be doing any sliding forward or backward. it was tight enough I had to notch one end for the balance wire and power wire to exit. I just notched a little too much.
The locking center on the GT/GTX2 looks interesting.
