| Throwback Sami Build
I always wanted to build a trail ranger scaler and ****ing loved pinchflat and kaetwo's take on them back in the day. I got out of RC in 2012 and thought id never be back . . Well with the release of the scx2 and some local buddies that got back into it here I am . . I knew I wanted to build this rig as soon as I got another scx . .the problem was finding the body .. well thanks to a member here and TeamBlueGroove that was possible. specs on the build SCX10.2 kit CAC 2.0 soft 8s Holmes puller pro xl 3500kv Holmes BLE savox steer servo juggernaut servo winch with quicrun esc controller |

Thanks .. I built this one out of 1/8" rod and it's super easy to work with and once it's all brazed up it actually really strong. | ||

| Re: Throwback Sami Build You might be able to still get these. This body is a teambluegroove which is a reproduction of the axial body. Look on ebay for their store.

Great build. Very nice work. It would look fantastic with one of those Reign/Pinchflat grills. Is that the 1/8 steel rod you can buy at Home Depot, Lowes, etc.? Steve |

Yes I got the 1/8" rod from HD I have printed out a few different grills with the intention of making my own decal but ive been to busy building rigs for some local guys. With that said I may just get one of the reign grills instead. | |
