- Although there've been comments that this car is a AE B44 clone, it is quite a different car being similar only in overall layout of electronics
- build quality is typical TRF, i.e. simply excellent
- love the adjustable battery trays (forward and aft positions possible)
- quality of plastics feel very good, quite unlike the softer type used in the TRF201
- not much space for electronics though, for this car, small stuff will work better.
- compared to the B44, this car should be far easier to wrench on
- price of the kit is less than initial release prices of the TRF501/511 but they did skimp on some parts: turnbuckles are the cheaper ones released with the DB01 (I believe steel?), no HL (gold) shock bodies or ti-nitride coated shock shafts, basic steel diff balls...
Overall I really enjoyed the build... far more than when I built my B44. Looking forward to hitting the track with this buggy!
Maybe a different paint scheme from the typical yellow blue and red?
