Papa's BWD Nightmare S

[papabash]

Work has been all-consuming lately, but finally got some time off and threw together a little teaser vid of the Nightmare S in action. This is before doing any tuning; running old electronics, wide tires, and old beater body. Not real exciting stuff here, but it does show how smooth the articulation is.

Got my new esc in today from Creation Fab. Mamba Micro Pro/BEC. Chris did a very nice job on this.

You beat me too the video!!!
And your electronics look baller to me. I ran a micro Pro for the first time this past weekend - IDK if it was the cheap motor or to much drag on my rear axle. But it wasn't the happiest ESC when the rig was bound up.

I ran a Micro Pro on my previous Sporty and it performed very well. Hopefully this one will do the same.

Wasn't teasing a bit...same goes for anyone

I also mailed out a small gift to every Nightmare-S owner so far today...team drivers and those who purchased one...including a customer who took advantage of my Turkey Day sale to save $96.00 on his purchase!

[Purptr8r]

After switching the front shocks over to semi-droop, they were just a tad too short with the Integy caps. Easy fix, I just grabbed the original Traxxas caps and did the cap mod to them. Now they're just the right length again. Rears are still wearing the Integy caps.

Put my RcBros knuckle weights on from my old sporty, but with less weight now:



1.65 ounces per side currently:

Got a package today from team bro Purp. Narrowed 'Doos on cf wheels and, of course, CI foams. Really anxious to get these mounted up and under power. Cory did a nice job on these for me, thanks again bud!

I must have a set of those tires!

Them some sexy tires Sir - I still debating on tires. Pins don't seem to be the end all for our local crawl spots.

As much as I love them and have 30 sets they take some breaking in and getting use to ... Cutting patterns in them helps the cross over from Dona/rover to pins ...

If any of my favorite parts are unavailable anywhere in the whole wide world, I'll know where to look.
