It climbs great as is and is pretty quick. Probably going to change motors for someting a little faster on the topend, don't really want to change the gearing. Definetly want to change out the steering links for something stiffer than the stock plastic. Then some scale looking shocks, then we'll see what starts showing up for these Rigs from vendors.

I don't really need to get to it. I charge it while it's in the rig. The wires are plenty long for the battery so it is easy to charge this way. The only time it will be an issue for me is when the battery completly dies. Then I will just cut the zip ties and take it out. Post a pic of your blue rig.

Picked up my Driver. UFC guy was the best fit scale wise. Had to make my own steering column so it would reach his hands.

Looks good. I ordered all the vanquish items for my wraith about a week and a half ago. Just waiting on the parts now. Links steering and knuckles. Just need a better servo horn...
