Some Random pic....

























I have not had a chance to run it...due to the rain.....

Its ready for panel, I think it will have 0.5mm Alloy panel. Not sure of the painting scheme yet.

Tell me what you think...

Looks awesome, Can't wait for some action pictures! What did you do to the beadlock rings? I've never seen that done before and it looks pretty slick.

[Colgout]

Just spray some etch primer and then Red paint, and splatter some yellow paint on it. Nothing special.

[Ballistic17]

Looks pretty good. Haven't seen one that color yet. I like it.

But it does not have the following:

1. Tekin ESC;
2. Futaba Servo;
3. Vp parts (only have wraith knuckle);

No Freq e Skin wrap, but the panel is done..... I like the color and I think will use it on other rigs...

Stephen,

The bonnet wont dent, it was 1.5mm ali plate, all other panel is only 0.5 ali and will dent bent quite easily.....

I kinda like the color combination too, I am make new panel for my pro righ with the same color scheme...

Some poser shot today.

[Colgout]

Some update, had 1 race today and had a lot of fun....... Next time I will stay whole day....











I think the Twin Hammers is quite worry what's behind her......lol

[Colgout]

I changed out to a RevTech 4 poles 3800 Kv motor because I thought the tekin Gen2 Redline 13.5T was too slow.... The Revtech is a lot faster, but I found out today, I barely used full throttle and the Tekin may have been suffice. I will try to put it back for next race and see how it goes.
