Default Extreme Terrain Assault Vehicle

well here is the evolution of my AX-10 to an Extreme Terrain Assault Vehicle

stock config still full bodied


Ran that for a long time, worked well did some small mods. What i havent changed from the beginning is the
motor-Holmes Revolver
servo- Hitec 645mg
ESC- Mamba 25
radio- 3pjs on PCM

The next evolution


Changed shocks to HPI MT2 threaded with mini t springs, and a custom skid for double triangulation. Added the low CG battery plate.

And now like any Military Vehicle change is ongoing
I now introduce my E.T.A.V. Engineered to traverse the most extreme terrain on the planet to accomplish its mission.







Set-up is as follows
Running stock shocks with 1000 wt diff oil in full droop w/o springs
Have hammers on axial rims with 7oz in front none in back no air holes(thats prob going to change)
Helios body with a custom blended olive drab metallic paint
Have a set of Mayhem Beadlocks in the mail on the way
so what you guys think? I have to get to walmart and find a good looking Ma duece for the roof, already have a futuristic warrior for the back

well headed out and i am digging this droop thing!!!! super predictable super easy to settle the suspension i'm hooked on it now i just need dig.

Did find that i have to upgrade my servo, right now its just enough but i stall it waaay to easy. Think im going to run the articulation like this more, to get a better feel. not sure if it helps, or hinders me yet In a few situations it definately helped ALOT, and in others it seemed i needed to adjust the line a little to much. Sidehills fantastic!!!! climbs great those hammers are insane!! Overall VERY happy pics to follow.
