My poison dart build So I tore down my original frogger to build up the new new frogger. Waiting on the chassis but I figured I would start the thread now, here's where I'm at. Front axle O/D gears STRC relocating plate HR hubs Axial Knuckles JR z9100t steering Beef Tubes (set to extra clocking!) Felsenfest spools Rowdy Racing servo armor HB servo horn http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5110/...e9dfd1d0_z.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5029/...b2718c1e_z.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5308/...31c1198f_z.jpg Rear Axle U/D gears Axial plastic lockouts and straight axles Made a plate like Casey did to try out, have a TCS boomerang plate on the side http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5304/...386c6dff_z.jpg Axial transmission FXR Tekin 35t CC BEC Spektrum SR300 http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5142/...2f86eb01_z.jpg And the rod ends http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5269/...cc2949e2_z.jpg Shocks are from a traxxas rustler (the monster jam one so they are green) http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5186/...8f88fd7d_z.jpg Wheels and tires are Pro-Line Chisels and Pro-Line Titus beadlocks (until I can afford some VP black/greens) http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5266/...3337656b_z.jpg As for the color scheme i am getting a purple chassis with the green shocks, not sure if I am going to dye the white parts. I want black wheels with green rings. the panels are going to be painted with a purple/green that i used on my original AX10 which used to have these axles and trans. Here is a picture of the paint on the B-17 body http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5267/...65dc0007_z.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5302/...655e37db_z.jpg |
Nice looking build up so far, but the big question is does this mean no sportsman this weekend. What's the ETA on those Poison Dart 2's ? |
Ya no sporty this weekend just the SWX in the pro class. The tracking info says its departed Hong Kong facility. I'm pretty sure its express so i might get it in time to do a rough build up, we will see. I'm also waiting on our Junfac shafts to get here too. |
Well I'm not complaining LOL gives me a better chance. I've been waiting on my rear big bores, the LHS was having issues getting them into Canada because they are packaged with oil. Once I have those and the shafts I'm done with the GC3A, I got someone to buy my Wraith so I can go ahead with the XR (fingers crossed). |
Are you running the GC3A as a sporty? |
Yup, No Diggity yet. I had to paint up my C10 to have a legal body too. Hopefully there are enough entries that they don't cancel Sportsman, might have to bring some 1.9's LOL. |
Sub'd! Dood...your chassis should be there very shortly. Casey |
Checked the tracking again CINCINNATI HUB, OH. So i should have it on Monday. I plan on getting it roughed together and running by Wednesday night to give it a shake down run at the LHS and get some action shots. I keep checking the tracking number waiting for it to say "out for delivery". |
Alright, so i missed the DHL man today :cry: But i will get him tomorrow!! Trimmed up the motor plate today http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5223/...5550ca65_z.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5263/...2a6b2964_z.jpg Cant wait for tomorrow! |
Ah man that it sucks ball when you miss the delivery man, make sure you get him tomorrow. Hey what colour did you go for? |

Yep purple chassis is what i got. Not sure on the delrin dye yet but purple and green are the colors so far. I think i am gonna get those new VP hub/knuckles when they are released. Combined with a bta i think this thing is gonna be just the thing i need to kill some moa's (guess i'll need a dig too) |
Damn! That sucks. I was really hoping for some pics today. Casey |

Psh Dig... I run a rig with a UD rear and some clocking and nothing to fancy other than that and ive pulled some insane lines. Mind you I haven't gone up against an MOA but it all boils down to skill. and having fun and praying the MOA is an XR and its going to blow its gears :lmao: |
IT'S HERE IT'S HERE IT'S HERE Went home at lunch and there was a DHL package for me! Opened it up and guess what it was. My poison dart! But i have to work until 8pm tonight :cry: I have everything i need here and have been working on it while i dont have any customers cars to work on. So far the skid is drilled, the chassis is assembled, the lower links are built, and the panels are taking shape. I will try to get some pictures up later. I have them uploaded to flicker but i cant get the bb code to post them into the post. |
Damn Samuel...you dont waste any time at all do you? Hahaha. Awesome progress. I think you should have it running by tomorrow. Keep it up! Casey |
Oh so pretty, great progress man."thumbsup" |
very nice i'm excited to get mine!! come on slow boat and customs! |
Can't wait to see it in action? What are your plans with the old chassis? |
