| New G6 build
Hey all- just recently picked up a new Axial G6 Jeep.This is my third Axial kit build.Started out with the AX-10 Scorpion then built a Wraith now the G6 Jeep.Finished building the chassis in two days.Ill do the body this weekend. I've got a Hitec 645 mg steering servo for steering duties. For a motor I've got an Integy 45t crawler motor and for an ESC I chose a Novak Eiger.Still waiting for that to come in the mail.I will be running 2s & 3s batt packs.Heres a few pics of the progress so far.More pics to come when electronics and body are completed.

I suspect there are a lot of us around Chicago. It'd be fun to arrange something like a trail run one day. You chose a really great color! I haven't had my SCX-10 for long, but I'd recommend the Pro-Line Pro Pulls for the rear body clips. Makes getting the clips out and in so much easier once the cage goes on, and they're really high quality. |

I think you managed to snag the last original color to paint a G6 (although sh!t brown may still be available ). I have seen lots of orange Jeeps and a few yellow ones but your color looks like its right in between the two. Looks good. |

I ordered one of these today - it's supposed to be for my wife. If she doesn't like it then I'll have two crawlers. |

Got tired of waiting for my package from Tower Hobbies.Dont know what the deal there is.Since I live in Illinois I usually get my packages pretty quickly.Not the case with this order.Anyway I went to my LHS and picked up a Tekin FXR speedo.Also picked up a Proline 07 Chevy truck body.I added some led's to the front bumper I had laying around. Don't really know what color I will paint the Chevy body.Ive got a few cans to choose from.Very cold & rainy outside today so I've been running it around the house chasing the cat a little bit.Stay tuned!!!
