They are available from many sources. What not: - Fragile looking prop shafts, joints orientation is wrong, resulting in uneven rotation speed. - Speed limit switching button does not appear to be working. Wheel RPM is about 600 RPM in both modes - No proportional control of throttle and steering - Not enough torque for rough terrain Check out my other RC videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGO5EJJClJBCjIvu8frS7LrEU3H2Yz_so My GitHub: https://github.com/TheDIYGuy999 My Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/TheDIYGuy999/designs Follow me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDIYGuy999 on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/people/151735593@N06/ and on Google +: https://plus.google.com/b/10264
