The issues with the chassis is unacceptable in my opinion. Not only are they countersunk not deep enough, they are countersunk at the wrong angle. Metric screws use a 90 degree countersink, standard uses an 82 degree countersink. Whoever answered the phone for me was pleasant enough, but selling a retail product that is built incorrectly is NOT an acceptable business prectice. They did say they would send me screws, but that is still not right, they need to replace the product and that was never offered. It was put on ME to fix the problem. They told me that they are a small company and cannot afford to send all the chassis back to have them fixed. WHAT??? So evidently in America we can sell junk and use that as an excuse. Amazing.
I am not going to put double length metric screws into my plastic that is already drilled/tapped for larger 8-32 hadrdware. This will also destroy the holes even further if I decide to go back to the nitro setup. Now I need to go buy an 82 degree countersink and fix every single hole in the chassis. (They are ALL countersunk for metric hardware.) The problem with using standard hardware in a metric countersunk hole is that only a tiny amount of the screw head is touching the chassis, right near the center hole, with a small gap around the rest of the screw head taper. The tapers on the screws are supposed to match the taper on the chassis to spread out load and stay tight.
Be forwarned, wish I would have read about this before spending my money and gone with the Losi kit.............
