Doesn't the shocktower go behind the bulkhead? I built it so many different ways I forgot how it's officially donephoenix wrote:Started to rebuild drivetrain and shocks.

It goes in front.

Thats correct it goes in front, thats why it needs to be two pieces rather than one like a Lazer
I love watching a Mid take form from a pile of parts, brings back memories from back in the day when I used to strip mine now and then for a full clean and lube

Thx for your feedback ron. The parts are all original btw, e.g. no CF parts, maybe they look a bit like that under the light conditions.
Moved on today and selected a motor, anyone knows what wind these were?

Once again Phoenix I love this build as well.
Your pics are superb.
I am tempted to put it on my site , But I would like to have a picture of the model completed with body and wing.
That would be great!
Thanks.
