Default New scratch build. Big Red...

Well here we go,

The first part arrived today,

It's very red. I wonder how this beast is going to pan out....

Was 30bucks AUD delivered

Wow, that's RED. You're going to need to drill a few more holes before you start.

So I don't think this frame is for a SCX10 as listed...

Thankfully I can just shim the braces for the wider skid plate.

But the holes don't all line up on the skid and the rails

it is a D90 frame. Im sure you will make it work. But you are going to have to address it being wider in the front and rear. The Scx10 frames are pinched in to address the shock mount positions on the axles.

I have a Wroncho I have been building, and I think this frame might actually be perfect for it. unfortunately I ran out of time last night to tear down the Wroncho and check for fitment of the skid, but with all the bonus holes in the frame rails, I have my fingers crossed. I will post some pics tonight

New rails.....

Seems to match up well so far, I wonder of I can use the front brace as a cms mount.

Added some axles and wheels, 2.2 methods, probably won't make the final build...
Will do some more work tonight.

The traxxas 2.2 have a pretty huge offset which works pretty well with the scx10 size axles...

Looking good! Hope you have better luck than I've had with that Savox 0231 servo....
