Ultimate Dingo.

[MidLifeCrisis]

Hi all, long time watcher, first post, could anyone do me an ultimate money no object SCX 10 Dingo upgrade list please ?

It will end up getting very light use (as i aint the worlds best driver) but i do love to know i have the best.

Many thanks for a great forum and anyone taking the time out to answer me

You could spend 5x what the kit costs without breaking a sweat but many upgrades are personal taste so it would be useless to you. With no budget I would get a 1/5 scale HPI Baja and go nuts... ;)

This whole RC bug just hit me when i retired, i tried a cc 01 Pajero but that didnt seem my cup of tea, so next up (thanks to this forum) was my dingo, which i like but want to upgrade, let me burn out on this one before i go bigger

lol..Well not that "the best" of everything will make your rig any more capable than you can drive it but this may be the first and only I time I recommend these items.

My guess is everything Vanquish makes for the scx10

Currie Aluminum Axles

Can find a vender on here to make you or sell you a tube chassis (Must know what body youre using first I believe)

Im sure you can find a paint and body guy on here for some custom paint work.

Top of the line Airtronics or Spektrum or Futaba radio system and receiver
Hitec 7955 servo or a savox brand with around the same power
Tekin Sensored brushless set up with a roc412 motor
Castle creations 10amp BEC
3s/4s battery power
Pitbull tires
MIP ort JUNFAC drive shafts
Robinson Racing trans gears
Some type of dig unit
Gmade XD piggy back shocks
All stainless steel screws
Avid Ceramic bearings

An expensive shelf to display it with

Expect well over 2k (U.S. funds) investement.

Expect to get maybe half your investment back or less if you sell it down the road.

Good luck to you

Look over Pham's jk build. Over $4K of no budget, shelf queen glory. Not to be confused with his G6 build. Both of which are awesome rigs.

Find a build by Harley. A little more creative but just as costly.

sharky... He "needs" more servo. lol ;) A 7955 is too cheap and weak. 7980.

Dig is kinda useless. It doesn't work anything like it does in a comp moa rig. Big power will toast the internal dig parts no problem on a shaft driven rig. Also the dig setup introduced a lot of slop in the drivetrain front to rear. I'd try a RC4Wd 2 speed.

4s is too much. 3s is the sweet spot.

Grip fab lockers for tight, no slop fit. I've been through stock(weak ass), no-slop clamping(they loosen up on me), HR (tough but sloppy)

Check Super Shafty for Kyosho velvet shocks. Makes G-made look like rtr junk. Pick the right length.

I roll on ceramic bearings too but feel they are not really worth it in many spots but are good for some. Good ceramics have tighter tolerances and will cut down on some of the slop in the knuckle area. The rest of the truck gets disposable $1ea Avids or Fast Eddy bearings.

Many thanks to you both for that
