Thank you Frankentruck for the advice.
I did as you said and the steering works fine.

I also made a aluminium transmission brace. I only had 3mm aluminium, so I made holes to lighten it.
The two holes are there to put a drop of oil on the sprockets from time to time.
We can also see the suspension mounts with 3 degree of toe-in

I was going to order some of those. But when I added them to the cart, the shipping nearly tripled. I just got the wheels instead.
Seeing how yours are very bright white, I'm glad that I didn't.

You're right, the arms are shiny white. They are plastic (nylon?) injected. It's not 3d printing or machined in the mass.

Just realized you built your own ESC, nice work! That's awesome. Man the French RC mags were way ahead of RC Car Action I guess...
