Most pics or reports have been at the "fuse". I have no experience with them though. Still waiting on my bones and cups to break/wear out to get the Axial universals.

Drill bit shanks work well in mip's too

the stock pins are still in..
the shaft broke,right at the joint..
if they could beef that area up a lil bit more would be great.

i clean my cvds with a brush everytime i run them and lightly
oiled them..never a problem.

the only reason i think these broke.. in the video i take a highline
and do a flip and come tumbling down,and i try to right myself with a blip of the throttle..and i think it went the wrong way and slammed down pretty hard.

overall im happy with them.
i can get them cheaper than the axials anyway..

cant find the axials anywhere..if i can they want to much for them.

The rig looks mean just sitting there on the bench. Some nice battle scars. Love anything you post up.

damn man...thats a nice rig. im dig those tyres, they look like they bite heaps.

[ROLANDROCKSHOP]

video...



and yes,the tires bite..very well

How much does she weigh? The suspension looks cool the way it acts. I'm thinkin the alum axles may be a part of it.

Cool vid btw

thanks!
7lbs 2oz

i rework the rc4wd shocks(internals/springs)...my own lil secret recipe
the front springs are more stiff than the rears..

the 2.2 boggers are running stock foams..whaaa?
2-holes in front tire, 1- hole in rear tire..

no weight in the wheels..

the alum axles do weigh a tad more than the stock ones..
ill weigh one when i tear it down to replace cvds.

I love this rig. Its just plain awesome and works flawlessly looking at the videos. Keep up the good work!

[Meatwad]

Your recipe is workin guy. Please do weigh the axle if you get a chance, been curious since the release.

It's interesting to see the performance difference between the buggy and the wraith. It looks pretty dialed in! We might have to prod a little at your secret recipe shock setup

[Testykalz]

Anything new with this build? Loving it!

Ha, that's what I was thinking. The wraith never made it up, but the southern buggy did several times with ease.
