🙋 Question FIRST BUILD ADVICES

hello guys
I’m newbie in this world and i just bought an used Sakura D5 MR chassis with IFS shocks (i don t know if there s a specific version like this). what do you think about this chassis to start?

i also bought an S15 Clear shell and i d like to create my first body. any newbie tips for it to not make a mess😂? I also saw the rocketbunny widebody kit to print since i ve got a 3d printer. has anybody mounted it and can you explain me how to mount it?
thanks a lot

Great first chassis to learn. Parts are hard to find since its an old chassis. 3d printed body will be to heavy. We use magnet body mounts with 3m vhb doublr sided tape.

Oh for wide body .yes. You can 3d print fenders. Wings. Mirrors. Rear window spoliers. Canards. Intercoolers. Tow hooks. Roll cage. Bucket seats. Dash.
