"Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

Just traded my SCX10 honcho for this Wraith.. I don't have to many things in mind for her yet other than just building it up and doing some rock crawling.
Here are some poster photos of her and I'm going riding tomorrow so hoping to get some action shots.

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

your rig did real well out there..
i did notice you got ALOT of torque twist in the rear when i was
watching the videos i took.

slightly stiffer springs in the rear will help it out some.

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

when will we get to see the "videos" that you speak of? :ror:

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

im home today so videos will be up later on...

patience isnt your one of your strong points is it jared..??:mrgreen:

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up

unless you swapped the spur it's an 87t spur.
also has mip driveshafts
as for the torque twist it's running losi comp shocks with losi white springs in front, axial super soft red springs in rear.
i don't remember if i told you or not, but i swapped the ring gears around in the axles so the motor turns the normal direction now. i bet you figured that out tho!!

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

Well changed out the red soft springs in the rear for a little bit heavier duty losi spring.

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

Well the stock servo finally gave out.. So ordered a 7955TG and it just came in.. Now for the hobby store to open tomorrow and go get a BEC and link.

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

You know.. honestly, I didn't even know that there was a coleworx buggy named Eleanor but that is one hell of an idea. :mrgreen:
I might just have to look into getting something built up like that.

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

Now you're talkin Bro..Go for it!

Re: "Eleanor" Wraith Build up
 

Well fried a BEC and my ESC somehow.. and now she is stripped and ready for new paint and new electronics!

I'm thinking as far as electronics:

Tekin 13.5T Redline
MMP ESC
32P 60/15 geared
HR swaybar kit(maybe)
FlySky FS-GT3B Controller and RX
Maybe 3S Lipo

any other suggestions? See anything wrong with that combo?
