Default Koko's SWX comp build

Sigh...now another SWX build. LOL

Well...I gotta say this hobby is addicting. About a year ago I bought a used Axial and now here I sit with a Axial SCX10 scaler and custom built Axial SWX. Before I post pictures, I need to thank a friend. !b! Without his help on soldering, how to wire the BEC, and custom fabbing a dig bracket, I'd still be trying to get this built. Only thing I'm unhappy with is the way the body paint came out.

Here's the specs:
Axial Axles from ARTR w/ HD lockers
Axial SWX frame kit
Vanquish Revolver Wheels
Losi Rock Crawler Tires
Losi Shocks
Losi Rock Grappler Body
Tekin FXR esc
Tekin 55t motor
DNA Dig
Hitec 225 Micro dig servo
Hobbico C170 steering servo
Spektrum Micro receiver
Castle BEC
TCS Axle plates
Holmes Hobby 3s Lipo
Axial driveshaft rings

Does that blue DNA unit have tighter tolerances? I've heard alittle about it, just wondering.

I'm not sure about the tolerances. I stripped the case on the original black one when I was trying to screw down the dig bracket. This is the one they sent me as a replacement. All is good though!

The SWX rocks, sweet rig. The blue looks like bowtie's anodizing to me
