Here is the list

Radio : MX-3 w/3rd ch
Speed Control: FXR
DNA CFX Slingshot Chassis
DNA Dig
Losi Rock Claw Tires
Axial Transmission
Axial Axles
Revo shocks
axial heavy duty locker
Aluminum rear axle lockout kit HR
HD drive shafts & yokes
HS225MG Dig Servo
HS645MG Steering Servo
Stock rear-end gears: 38t ring gear 13t pinion gear
Spur gear: 87t
Pinion gear on motor: 14t
Motor: 55S Matrix V10 Crawler
Battery: CKRC’s 3 cell 1500mah
Losi Grappler body
Ride height -3"
wheel base at 12.5"

x-mas list: BEC
need to lower my ride height to -2 3/4"

I also did what Bowtie did and cut the front axle mounts down flush, worked great. I didn't put every step on here benz; Bowtie, Jam MaxAmps and tqcookie covered it very nicely....their pictures look better and clear than mine also

I will weigh my rig on Thur. night when i start my
night shift and post it up also.
I really like this set-up now, once i lower a bit..even though the cog is center but you barley push on it and it's over on its lid.
Thanks DNA and all the other great builds on this chassis; Bowtie, Jam MaxAmps and tqcookie

Awesome looking rig, what springs are you running with those revo shocks.

hitman46mod · 12-10-2008, 09:51 PM

Sharp rig man.

4XADICT · 12-10-2008, 10:15 PM

Nice. Now I know why you had CFX on the brain

.

ynmech · 12-10-2008, 11:47 PM

Very nice rig

Cant wait to get the carbon parts for mine.

bigflex · 12-11-2008, 01:14 AM

nice build! I am hoping to be building one soon as well.

abadk9420 · 12-11-2008, 02:02 AM

That's a sick looking rig you got there!!!!! I like the carbon....

prusik333 · 12-11-2008, 04:04 AM

Thanks for the comments all, I DIG this DNA CFX chassis, once i lower it and get a BEC, maybe a stronger servo, and lots of practice.....i'll get better at comps...I can't wait till i get the next comp off from work

Justgoingslow thanks...I will get with Rhett and ask him, I swapped shocks with him and i'm not sure which ones they are?

JUSTGOINGSLOW: The springs are 4.0 lbs jato springs. Same as these here.

That I'm not sure of. They are softer than what came on the stock shocks, but that's all I have to compare them with.

Harvo · 12-12-2008, 06:20 AM
