  • Check for any obstructions (e.g., wires, internal components) preventing a flush fit.
  • Verify that the chassis is indeed compatible with this specific body model.
• Body Rubbing on Wheels/Track:
  • Confirm the body is fully seated on the chassis.
  • Inspect for any bent or misaligned parts of the body or chassis that might be causing interference.
• Damage to Details:
  • Small details (e.g., handrails, pantographs) can be fragile. Handle with extreme care.
  • If a part breaks, specialized model adhesive may be used for repair, but consult a hobby expert if unsure.
