jus got my mid and need some help

[wewu]

I just got my mid in the mail today and decided to put it together. Looks like a pretty well designed kit except for some little things that I thought they could have done to make it more durable. For example more bind screws and nuts instead of some of those self tapping screws would have been nice. Also they really shoulda considered using more alum. in their kit, cuz the plastic seems a bit soft and flimsy. I mean the miniz's plastic is ten times better than the stuff the mid is made outta. I guess thats what gpm hopups are here for.

Neways I pretty much finished the assembly except for putting in all the electronics. It seems if I wanna use the reciever that came with the airtronics mx-3 with the hitec hs81mg with the s2000 wheelbase, I'm gonna have to stack the reciever on top of my spy esc. So my question is will this cause ne glitching to occur?? The spy manual says to keep the reciever as far away to the servo, esc, motor, and wiring as possible, but with the limited space for electronics in the mid there is no way to achieve this.

My second question is you peeps that already own a mid, and it is how durable is the mid in your opinion?? Ne broken plastic parts yet? Also is the friction shock on the rear of the mid is crooked on mine, is it on yours???

Also of note is the fitment of the 180 motors is tighter than I expected. I bought the TO elite stock motor and I had to bend all the caps and put the rear axle to its widest setting just so nothing is gonna rub on the rear left tire. So do you guys running 180 motors in your mid have the same experience or am I missing something??

Sorry for the long winded and noobish questions but I'm just anxious to get it running.

Thanks

Wes

p.s. TinyRC did you get my email asking about hopups for the mid, cause its been a couple of days and I hadn't heard back from ya
