my new wraith (progression)

[crawler nut]

everywhere i go wheelin around here has a ton of binding spots. im pretty had on it but 3 motors in 12-15 trips is rediculous. ive probably ran about 50 packs through it so far.

[crawler nut]

changed my pinion and spur out to 32p. im running a 62/10 now with a 45t motor. works great, motor finally stays cool and hopefully no more worries about stripping the spur. also got a 3300mah 2s2p to stick under the hood for a bit more weight up front.

[crawler nut]

everything fits under the deck cover i made

[crawler nut]

got some diamond plate and have been playing around with some interior panels. i think they make it nicer and not so plain. may do some inner fenders out of it also. may get some materials to start making some scale items.

[crawler nut]

so far i only have the floor and side panels made for the trans tunel. just need to paint them and finish making the rest of the panels.

[crawler nut]

so i went with yet another motor in here. the 55t and 45t were both nice but not quite enough speed to jump a gap or launch over a sharp crest. plus i had o rob the 45t out of the wraith for my ax10 comp rig. we had a local small comp over the weekend. i got my new motor last week. a HH 25t torque master pro handwound. i absolutly love it. way way more torque and just enough speed for what i need. im loving how this thing works so far and have not had any issues with binding up due to lack of torque or over heating. these motors really are the way to go.

[crawler nut]

oh and i finally put the 3s to the test on the stock esc. everything is holding up so far. even on 3s my 55t didnt have the torque the HH motor has.

[crawler nut]

new rims and some tires i got off a buddy for $10. mayhem engineering remachined and rc4wd rock crusher m/t's. need to install the narrower hubs. i tried them on my ax10 also.

[JustinM]

How do thos tires do?

[crawler nut]

Goood but IMO they need to be grooved to open the tread up a little bit and they'd probably be pretty sweet. Plus they were only $10 lol. Can't go wrong at that price.

[crawler nut]

the ol lady came home with a paper bag yesterday. what did she buy? its for me? no way... i opened it and found a full set of upper and lower VP links. wow she hates rc's but spent $100 on parts for me. damn i love her. lol.

[crawler nut]

got a tractor supply gift card tool box. small and scale looking i thought why not put it in the wraith. so here it is.

[crawler nut]

ordered all the rrp goodies for my tranny. also in the market for a new esc. i like the tekin fxr for its size but im wanting something more. im leaning towards a mmp. but ive heard alot of good things about mmp and brxl. im planning on staying brushed. which of the 2 is better?

[crawler nut]

got my rrp gears today. man is the solid center diff/output gear sweet

and its back to the integy motor until i get a new spur/pinion

[crawler nut]

i made some half ass scale jumper cables with some wire i had laying around. what i really need is some 20g red and black speaker wire.

[crawler nut]

all back together and the tool box back in. filled with jumper cables, star wrench and a spare stock drive line. my version of a scale d-ring. i have a huge one on my 1.1 so why not put a big one on my wraith?

[crawler nut]

cant tell you how happy i am with the HH motor i got. its loaded with torque and i almost never bind up on anything anymore. the RRP solid center/outdrive gear is super beef. i put like 12-15 packs through it of beating the snot out of it for 2 days and it all holds up. but i did break both inner shafts so i finaly put the uni's in. also waiting for a set of baja claws to show up i picked up from a guy here.

[gabehunt]

that rrp center gear is sweet, how did the rock crushers do? i like the way they look.

[crawler nut]

they are super sticky. they work pretty well but i think i need to grove them a bit to open up the space between the lugs. other than that they hook up really good. im going to be replacing them with the baja claws soon though. just waiting to get them in the mail. i may cut these up and use them on my ax10 comp crawler

I really like my TSL's but after seeing my cousins baja claws I had to order some iroks yesterday
