| Chevy K10 'Build'
So my SCX10 TR showed up at about 7:20PM today. UPS must be swamped. I haven't even drove it yet since I don't have any batteries with Tamiya connectors...nor do I have a soldering iron or extra Traxxas connectors. BUT, I was busy with other things! I ordered a 1980 Chevy body along with it. Wheelbase is ever so slightly short but I worked the fender flares as far to the ends as I reasonable could, so once the body is mounted it will be fine. I believe Im going to be out of town the next few days (starting tomorrow) but when I get a chance all the factory electronics are coming out and be replacing with my TQ3, Hitec 645MG, and perhaps the XL5 out of my Stampede for the time being. I dunno what else is in the books yet, but Im open to suggestions. -Chris |
