| HS-645 servos for both steering and dig. 4pk to control the 4 channels, 3s 5000mah lipo to supply the power. I haven't decided yet on the ESC and motor, but probably the Torque master from Holmes, or a mamba maxx. I also haven't decided if I want to keep the 7turn puller in it or switch to another brushed motor. I really like that motor that comes with the SCX-10TR on 3s. |

Spent some time bolting things together today, I am back to having a roller. You can see in these pics how much the front bumper protects the winch. |

You may also notice that since the first pics were posted I have laid down the first coat of paint. Yes it is gloss, not normal for me;) I decided to paint the cab of this truck to match the paint on my old 1:1 Toyota. These pics aren't of mine, but the paint is what I am shooting for on this build. |

Looks good Jason! Wish that I has a Quick Sand winch just sitting around waiting for a build. If you've got a Titan 21t sitting around try that for a motor, very fun on 3s in a scaler! You going to be able to make it out to either of the last to scale events for this series? |

I've been trying to make the events, but it just hasn't worked out in my favor this year, I had a blast at the one scale event I did lastyear and can't wait to do another. I'll keep an eye out for your posts and hope to make it to an event. | ||

Looking good Jason. I can't wait to see the paint finished. My uncle had one painted like that when I was a kid. And, R2J does do some awesome work. I love Rodney's TOY . |

I hope that you can make an event, or at least one of these weekends we should go up to Flat Irons and mess around for a few hours. | |

Got to give a big thanks to Griz, went up to his place this morning and he wired up my QS winch for me. I love this winch, top notch quality.
