Default broke down and bought a Dingo

I have had SCTs , Monster trucks etc and enjoyed them - fun times for my son and I . I picked up an AX10 - loved it ! Then I did a 73 Bronco body and some accesories and was hooked on the scale truck aspect . Fast forward and I bought a Dingo kit .

Enough of that - about this one . Dingo kit stock , hitech 645mg ,Tekin FXR/ 55T pro handwound combo , CC bec on 1300mah 3s .
to make it my own I mounted the body through the bumper mounts , Wraith seats with custom interior , covered cab with gun rack , rear mounted jerry can with a zebra paint job . Threw some scale accesories in and Voila :


some close ups :

I love the paintjob! Looks awesome!

One question, as I just built a Dingo this weekend too. Did you wire the CC BEC per the instructions in the packaging, or did you do it from one the wiring diagrams found here?

I just moved my battery to the front, what a difference, night and day. helps keep the front end down a lot better.

Picked up a RC4wd 9300xt winch . I stated the mod to my TQ2.4 to unlock the remaking channels and run a stock rocker from a tq3 am radio with a seperate on/off to control the winch .

Haven't used it much - just around the house and yard for some test runs . Have to dig through a foot of snow to find rocks lol . I have been using my 73 Bronco 2.2 rig this winter .
