Looks good, you should mount the electronics on the links for a little lower COG |

....Got some more done on my J2-TT build.....pretty much finished all the soldering and install of the electronics...just waiting on my VF dig to arrive.Mounted my new Proline C10 body,need to cut the body post's still, Not sure what color to paint it yet( even tho i'd like to copy FrankyRizzo's flat black...love that thing) Threw on an old Grappler body i had,may have to get another one of them ...as always,would appreciate some feedback on changes i should make or set up problems you guys might see as this is pretty much my first 2.2 build that didn't include an instruction book...thanks...some more pics...
