Each of these stages show different measurements on the tie rods for the rear suspension. Stage 42 says 2.5 mm and Stage 66 says 5.70 mm. This will not work I think. Am I missing something? I have reviewed 3 times and it seems that they should be the same or does the longer go on which side?
Thanks

Hi Leslie

It was a typo and should say the correct measurement of 2.5mm.

As you know the two long and one short tie rods are made up in stage 42 with measurements of 66.1mm for the long rods and 2.5mm for the short rod, so the last tie rod in stage 66 is a short one with the 2.5mm measurement.

It seems as I get closer, more questions regarding the directions.
Also. in Pack 67 the servo horn, throttle/brake has 2 holes as well as the steering servo. The picture shows 3 holes. Page 282, picture 5. There is not room for thelinkage rods to be mounted. I also require the 3 hole servo horn to continue. This is the 3rd such incident of wrong info in the directions/video requiring contact Model Space. Up to now as has been well.

Thanks and let me know any more info you require.

Hi Leslie

I think you have inadvertently been supplied with two steering servos [ stage 43 ] with the two hole horn and not the motor servo from stage 51 that has the 3 hole horn. Contact C/S for a replacement stage 51 to get the correct part.
