Motor - Novak 55 Links - integy Tyres - G-Made Bighorn Battery - 2x Venom 7.2v 3000 Steering - Servo MG995 Can someone please help with a good ESC, or should i go brushless? I would like to run a lipo to. Need help on what i would need to set it up? Lipo's are new to me. One more thing, how about a name for it ??? Thanks for all your help. |

I like this very much, I'd call it interceptor like that car from the mad max movie. This tuber reminds me of old school muscle cars. Not that I have seen many but it does have this mean road warrior look.

I really like the bug look. Don't know what nasty bugs ya got downunder to name it after. Do the front wheels hit the shocks at lock? the batts in the body puts alot of weight up high too (why all the batterys anyway?). I like the build it yourself stuff better than store bought. Pretty Kewl!

Yes the wheels rub. the batterys on the body are not to bad , it can still balance on its side. i just get longer run time and a little more power but i will be going lipo and a new esc....

I like where the other half of the split pack is, may raise the COG, but it's pretty clever |
