So I have decided to learn to use inventor and I was wondering if some one could help me out I tried to assemble the kit chasis but i couldn't so if you could shoot a video of you assembling the kit chasis it would be greatly appreciated.

hii, the most important tool is the constrain click it and on the [?] button and learn how to use it

Inventor ship with 27 tutorials (look on the main Help page). These tutorials will explain to you in detail how to build parts and assemble them. One thing to remember while building the chassis: you might be inclined to mate flat faces to flat faces however the chassis components will be assembled using nuts and bolts through the holes in the chassis channel pieces. You may want to consider mating hole axes with hole axes.

Speaking of constraints, i am having a few problems with a few. i am designing our frame and i have constrained pieces of bosch and a few other parts and even with the constraints in place, some pieces stay together while others move. i have reconstrained the entire assembly and the problem continues. i have no idea what to do so if someone could help me out id appreciate it.

Of course no one can really help you without the parts that go in your assembly. An iam file is simply links to the parts and a record of the constraints - without the parts it is useless.
