    Dude, return it. But IF you decide to keep her:
    Kintec 5" Rudder (GET THE NUT PLATE AS WELL THAT IS BELOW IT)
    Traxas Trim Tab adjusters
    OSE .187 flex cable and strut (get 2)
    Octura X442 Sharp/Balanced (Get 2)
    Some quality marine grease (Buy in bulk)
    Castle 6.5mm Polarized Connectors
    10G wiring
    Castle Creations Cap pack
    50C lipos (I suggest SPC lipos) Get 1 3s and 1 2s, same mah and discharge for 5s.
    PVC pipe to build a carrying stand
    Aluminum cooling jacket (OSE or Kintec)
    OSE 1/4 Colling line Get 6FT at least
    OSE Dual water outlet (DO NOT TRY TO USE A "SPLITTER")

    I will come back to you if I remember anything else, I had 2 never running at the same time... I decided 5s was the highest this hull needs to go. It can't be balanced without wasting SO MUCH time so enjoy it on 5s, don't touch 6s

    PS: ALL Soldering needs to be quality... PM me if you have a question but remember Google can be of help faster. I suggest a Traxxas #2933 Charger, they are on EBay for $73 shipped which is plenty enough.

    Here is a 6s video of mine: The YouTube....
