Thank you all for the Birthday wishes. I had been out of town for several days.
I have another ( a lot ) of images to post. Aside from being out of town, I have acquired something similar to a frozen shoulder. I know it is from when I am posting and editing a lot of images -- hence not taking a break like I should, but I guess that ole man age is starting to creep up on me. But to some, I am just a kid at now 69 years old.
So, here goes my next batch.

This project is really a huge departure from ship building and actually a good one - no glue - no sanding - no shaping - just plug the parts together. I highly suggest it, but be aware that it is huge endeavor and with fairly high concentration to get parts oriented correctly. I have caught myself many times already with incorrect installation sequences. If any of you love challenges - go for it. That's why I decided to do this log as to be a help along with manual in case anyone decides to take it on. The manual I have is small and at times, I have to use a small magnifying glass to see what type of connector they are using.

Hi Donnie. Firstly, thank you so much for this exceptional guide to building this 720S wonderful kit. It has been extraordinarily helpful to me - even though it’s not the first “brick” supercar that I’ve built. I’ve nearly reached the end of your guide (ie 3/3 pages) but it’s clearly not the end of the build. Is there a reason why you haven’t gone further or am I looking in the wrong place. I haven’t reached the electrics quite yet but it’s the single most tricky-looking part. More so, since the Instructions are extremely limited on this vital area. Any advice/guidance you can offer will be greatly appreciated. Regards Norm
I am just at a stopping place. I plan to upload the lasted progress maybe this late afternoon.
I did hook up the electric motors that control rear wheels and steering to check on that which works ok. The remote control is not like a regular RC car that has joysticks to control the speed. Same with steering. All on or off. Which for what it cost, I can them only having simple controls.
I am right at the half way point now.
