I haven't heard of issues like I had with the Dhawk ones either.

The factory AE was all steel. FWIW there's one on eBay.

Is this why the Stealth holes are drilled in the 40th chassis? https://i.imgur.com/dJRwmx3.jpg No. The 2013 re-re gold chassis (p/n 6300) has Stealth holes as well. Of course both the vintage AB & B stamped chassis are the ones that came predrilled for Stealth bitd. By the time people were actu...

Actually it is recommended you boil the parts after they completed a peroxide bath.

The link in the OP still renders the battery article on my iPhone.

I finally set some time aside to do some more work on this build. I passed on the B2 style turnbuckles and stuck with the same style used for the earlier Team/Worlds. AE Ball studs are all the later stainless variant. I wanted to keep my Worlds shock kit intact for another project, so I sourced colo...

The first iteration was a Yokomo "dry mag", and in 1988 they switched to the Yokomo "wet mag" when it became available.

I've tried all the links in this thread...the issues on internet archive I have on PDF, I have a lot of paper issues, but I'm missing from 1989 to 1994. Has anyone got a working pdf link for these issues? Thanks! It appears the link I posted back in Sept. finally threw the ghost. A lot of us have t...

Michael's has raised their price $75 (or more) over the past week. No longer a good deal.

Later Yokomo wet mag from around 1988/89.

I remember AE stating they would not be offering CC parts separately. I assumed they meant "clear" parts since chassis, nose, motor plates, tires (maybe something else) were offered up. I wonder if they have changed their stance with the 40th gold pan kit.

Hopefully the chassis aren't warped like the ones AE unloaded on eBay last year without mentioning they were blems.

Appreciate the responses guys. Unfortunately its too late. The auction ended just after the first response. At least now I know for next time. Stealth trans are posted up often. The key is finding a complete one in good condition for less than $100. Your 6 gear will handle brushless and 2S if you h...

Finally found another set of Mip #1188 Lite Drives and a few other goodies.
