You have been busy!!
I like the rear driveshaft!
Why did you go that route and not SDI?
What gear are you using for the OD/UD?

My experience is that SDI shafts tend to bind under load,-hurting the suspension movement. And I like to run very soft suspension,-I have even installed a rear sway bar,just like my other rig

Gears are HR 27/8 and 30/8 ,-would have liked more difference,-maybe experiment with different height tires front to rear..... ??

This was the first body for the rig:

But I was not that happy with recovery and the body is a bit fragile.

So I will be running this Xciter body:



Here you can see the sway bar aswell.

Brass weights are these,-I just cut off the largest outside part of them,-that diameter fits perfect inside the DE Racing wheels :

Good find on the brass weights!

Are those bent rod ends on the skid plate for 4mm rods?
If so, do you have a link for them?
Too bad the rod ends slots are not bent already... Making links is muck easier if the rodends are straight.

The rod ends are from the XR10 parts #80057,-and drilled to take 4mm rod

Axial #31186 M4 rod end set have bent rod ends aswell,-they are beefier

Need some tuning to make it as great as my previous rig.
Takes time to get used to less overdrive,-and maybe I need some more weight up front....but overall I'am very pleased with the performance

I did run the old rig at Nordics,-because I know it better than this new one.
But Asle (Brumle) drove this rig at Nordics,-and he did well considering he had not driven it before and was a bit afraid of wrecking it

I have only sold one rig,-my Sucker Punch shafty loaner
Still have some Losi's and the SuDuOne.

With very soft shocks I find the sway-bar useful
