I recently introduced myself in the new member section and now I've decided to start my own build thread.
As stated before this is my 1st RC since childhood. As we all know the initial start up in any hobby or sport cost an Arm and Leg to say the least, hence the name “Money Pit”. I was going to put this thread off until all parts were on hand but I figured starting it now would give me a chance to log my parts inventory, ask questions and get to know my fellow members a bit.
With that being said, I'd like to openly thank @The Stig for helping me out a bit behind the scene. He's the 1st member I've contacted and shown nothing but patience's and hospitality. Also want to thank @razorrc for his 4s truck comparison video. It helped me make my final decision.
Now for the run down of Parts and tools accumulated thus far.
