I am in the US and I got my first pack last night. I already put together the front and rear wings. I left the shock for stage 26 as I saw on here that they want you to take it back apart for a new washer. Might as well wait. I'll post pics as I go along. First 3 stages were pretty straight forward.
Man, this is going to be a long ride. 2 Questions. I know we will get a racing body, but will we get racing wings too? The front wing seems seems awfully fragile.
Also, does anyone know what issue the US is on?
Thanks.

Hi Aquanin.. Looking great so far and yes a long haul but so much fun along the way  To answer your questions regarding the running body wings, you do get racing front and rear wings later in the build. Regards Spencer

Pack 9 arrived. This is up through Stage 36. I just placed the wings where they are supposed to go for fun. My daughter and her Panda might go for a ride.

Hi Aquanin, That looks GREAT! I am a bit envious. I have done my level best to stay away from RC my entire life. Not due to lack of interest, but because there is SO very much cool stuff out there that I simply can't afford getting into it. But, the RB7 has tempted me since day 1. I am looking forward to seeing your blog progress as well. Cheers! P.S. I'm the US forums support guy. If you run into any issues, please feel free to PM me! Tired, Old, and Cranky!
