These instructions show you some tips on how to better build your Cyclone D4. These tips are what top Hotbodies drivers do to their cars to ensure the best performance and reliability from their cars

	Chassis Preparation (pdf, 1.09 Mb) The first step when building your Cyclone D4 is to super glue the edges of your chassis, top decks and shock towers.
	Transmission (pdf, 1.07 Mb) There are several key areas in the build of the transmission where extra work and attention can pay off with superior performance on the track.
	Steering (pdf, 1.01 Mb) The first step is to clean up the mouldings for the steering parts. It is important to do this to ensure that the steering mechanism is free, without slop, once assembled.
	Centre Transmission Assembly (pdf, 1.05 Mb) When assembling the centre mount that clamps the slipper assembly into the centre bulkheads you may find it beneficial to stick the bearing holders to the centre bulkhead upper.
	Driveshafts (pdf, 0.96 Mb) The driveshafts are an important part of the transmission. Here we show how to improve the reliability and durability of your driveshafts.
	Front Suspension (pdf, 1.14 Mb) There are 2 different angle castor blocks included in the kit. On the castor block there is a letter and a number. The letter tells you what side of the car the castor block is for, and the number tells you how much castor the block adds to the car.
	Rear Suspension (pdf, 1.15 Mb) First, don't forget to install the bearing spacer between the two rear wheel bearings. This spacer stops the bearings being clamped when the wheel is screwed on.
	Shocks (pdf, 1.22 Mb) Check the shock retainer collar for burrs. If there are any burrs remove them with a modelling knife.
	Electronics (pdf, 0.91 Mb) The best way to route the wires from the speed control to the motors is under the front centre driveshaft.
	Body and wing (pdf, 0.95 Mb) The body has scoops moulded into it. When racing in warm conditions these scoops can be cut out to allow cooling air to pass over the motor and speed control.
