Default Bronco 2.2



So I made a electronics box that has my esc bec and rx all stuffed inside it. It's the same size as my turnagy 3s batteries. And weighted so match the weight of the batteries



Some supershafty goodness their U4 scx10 modded axles



The toyzuki motor mount and scx10 trans with a Holmes Hobbies revolver Stubby motor



Electronics and battery mounted in a saddle style for a low center of gravity



Low center of gravity is key



The balance point is actually beyond 90°

Now to finish with a low mounted light weight lexan body.

Integy chassis? Looks like your building a winner! Hope you can find a way to get it pointed out without changing the cog!

This new series we are running doesn't use scale points. In my opinion running scale points just becomes a strategy and not a more "scale" competition. Granted that is not alI he will be running I am assuming. I am going to get pictures of this beast in action this weekend at the comp.

It definitely looks like a great start!

I ended up swapping out the integy frame for a truggy chassis made by a close friend "Grundish customs"






Pinched the front end and managed to keep the center of gravity low.


Made a full 1 seat 3d interior with a full driver


Thanks for all the comments.

Since I switched everything over to the truggy chassis I found a way to mount a winch behind the front of the body. I am using a 3 racing winch with the lockedup rc Freespool mod and a rc4wd wireless winch controler. I am very happy with the Freespool mod but I had to install a longer release on it that comes out just in front of the front drivers side tire since the winch itself sits under the body.
