Took me 3 weeks to decide what rtr to buy. Last RC I had was a Losi LXT but recently I wanted to get back into it and didn't want to spend a lot since I was unsure how often I would use it. Came down to the Arrma Typhon 3S or the BX-8E. My main concern was the quality and workmanship of this rc but after running it for a week, its fine for the bashing I plan to do. It might not be the highest end car out there or the most durable or well made but its a solid car for recreational use. Only casualty so far was a bent shock tower screw. Screws come loose...especially the 2 motor mount screws and none were not installed with loctite so make sure you add some. They seem to be made of a hard enough aluminum which was my main concern. Was worried they would be easily stripped. Wheel hex nuts always come loose too. Buying spares and spare screws as well. Wheels are pretty lopsided but they make for a great bashing set. Pretty soft plastic so can try to bend them back into shape. I didn't bother using the charger but the battery has been fine. 4 cycles so far and they balance well. Still giving 4 stars...the wheels are probably the biggest disappointment but at the price, its a great deal.

  • ddraewwg Yes there is a manual with detailed views of major sections of the car such as the front and rear suspension, front and rear arms and then an exploded view of the entire car. also lists all the parts packages but Banggood doesn't stock all. Hard to get replacement screws but they are all sizes M3-M4 with varying lengths. Looks like a set of grub screws are M5's. Probably easier to get from Amazon...but as long as you get the right size and type, you should be fine.

  • ddraewwg @BG341138101 Yes there is a manual with detailed exploded diagrams. It does not tell you step by step instructions of how to take apart and reassemble the car. It only shows you the components and the labels for each component
