I set the camber to -1 degrees on all 4 corners. This is the stock setup, and is also a very neutral all around setup. I’ll adjust from here as needed.

I didn’t install any limiters inside the shocks when I filled them with oil earlier. Given that, and with the shock collars all the way up, I still could not get the truck as low as the setup sheet called for. The arms do sit level with a battery and a body on the truck, so I left it here. If I feel like the truck needs to be a little lower, I’ll install some limiters in the shocks.

And we’re done. Mostly. At this point in the build all that was left was to paint the body. I powered the truck up for the first time on a stand, and slowly squeezed the throttle. I noticed the tires were turning the wrong direction, so I reversed the rotation in the ESC. Then I checked steering throw, and adjusted the EPA on the radio so that the tires didn’t try to turn too far.

It’s time to fit the included Flo-tek body.

I chose a very basic, yet very bright paint job. I cut out some of the air vents, but not all. I want to experiment some to see if there are added benefits down the road with cutting out the additional holes.

All told this truck took about 2.5 hours to assemble, and that’s with taking pictures. It did come 40% complete, which aided in the time of course. I’m getting some practice laps on this bad boy, and the first official race for our Pro-Line Racing Pro-2 will be the Newred Hobbies 10th anniversary race on April 19, 2014. Watch for coverage of that race, as well as a review of this truck in the coming weeks. I hope you found enjoyment in this article. It was a fun truck to build for sure.
