| Bender's Wraith Kit Build
Finished a step by step build of this for Axial's blog recently. Finally getting it linked here for you guys. I upgraded a few parts during the build process. It is now in roller form, with the electronics install coming soon. Ordered up a Tekin RS Pro ESC and 10.5 Brushless motor for it. Also grabbed an extra Futaba 4PK receiver. Just need to get everything installed and go out for a shakedown run. Upgraded parts: Axial steel pivot balls Axial aluminum upper links Axial aluminum C's Axial aluminum knuckles Axial aluminum prototype diff covers Link to step by step build: Step by Step Wraith Kit Build - Part I - Axles A few teaser pictures...........can you say black on black? I knew that you could. Last edited by BENDER; 01-01-2013 at 11:50 AM. |
