Pre Assembled: If ordering without ordering a remote & receiver at the same time from us then drive motors might need to be reconfigured due different wiring scenarios and programming of the remote you chose to use. We will hook up and test with a Flysky T6A 2.4GHz 6-Channel Radio Transmitter & Receiver. All connections will be soldered for stronger connection instead of using power blocks. Pre-assembled does not include loctite on connections so you might want to go through and loctite any hardware that might vibrate loose during battles
