Awesome story! Good folks in this hobby! I've got a bunch of ALU servo horns laying around. It should be a 25 spline being Savox. I've got three different 25 splines in the parts bin. More than happy to send you one, just DM me your address and I'll get it in the mail.

Awesome to see everyone being so generous.👍🏼

I appreciate the offer, but a servo horn is already on its way.

ESC might be here tomorrow.

I really just need the body to get here.🙄

This is really comin together rather quickly dez. Im nit the one buildin or givin it to the lil guy, but it still gives me that good feelin in my chest lol. Always great to make lil ones day n see a smile on thier face. Not aot of people would do wat u are. My wife n i have talkd many times about how anybody could ever hurt a lil one like so many people do. Its sad to see kids put thru such hurtful situations. They all need a friend like u dez, God bless u my friend!

It’s getting close!

The ESC showed up today, unfortunately they shipped the wrong one. I ordered a 1060 and they shipped a 1080.

With the budget being what it is and a $30.00 price difference, I passed. I’ll have to order a 1060 off of eBay.

As the body I ordered is just a cab, I needed to do something with the bed area.

So back to the parts bin to see what I could find. Came across a printed fuel cell, and the Canyon Trail tire I couldn’t find a month ago.

A couple of 3mm screws, a scrap piece of Lexan, and a couple of zip ties later, I had this.






Not much, but it’s a little something to give some balance to the rear.

I may do a little more once the body shows up and so can see what it looks like.

As it sits right now.

Well Son if a b*tch!

Seems Photobucket has screwed me again and Tinypic has ceased operations.

Now I need to find another picture hosting site that works.

I use the Tapatalk app on my smartphone. It’s where my pics are anyway. Paid the couple dollar annual fee and load away on the pics. They host them.
