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

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

Axial transmission
FXR
Tekin 35t
CC BEC
Spektrum SR300

And the rod ends

Shocks are from a traxxas rustler (the monster jam one so they are green)

Wheels and tires are Pro-Line Chisels and Pro-Line Titus beadlocks (until I can afford some VP black/greens)

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

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 ?

DioptricStraw 04-14-2011 09:38 PM

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.

cagedcbr 04-14-2011 09:50 PM

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).

DioptricStraw 04-14-2011 09:53 PM

Are you running the GC3A as a sporty?

cagedcbr 04-14-2011 10:02 PM

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.

KC_JoNeS 04-14-2011 10:13 PM

Sub'd! Dood...your chassis should be there very shortly.

Casey

DioptricStraw 04-16-2011 09:56 AM

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".

DioptricStraw 04-18-2011 07:52 PM

Alright, so i missed the DHL man today :cry:

But i will get him tomorrow!!

Trimmed up the motor plate today

He said purple chassis up above "thumbsup"

DioptricStraw 04-18-2011 08:58 PM

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)

KC_JoNeS 04-18-2011 09:30 PM

Damn! That sucks. I was really hoping for some pics today.

Nice! Hmmm now all you need is some Delrin rings dyed and your set :ror:

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:

DioptricStraw 04-19-2011 01:40 PM

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.

DioptricStraw 04-19-2011 05:02 PM

Okay time to post some pictures.

KC_JoNeS 04-19-2011 07:12 PM

Casey
