Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Interior is prepped. Keeping it simple for now, I will add more detail down the road.

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

I need to quit reading these builds, now I have to go work on mine. :D

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

I like the fact you didn't gloss the seats, I think gloss makes them look unrealistic! Good job!

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

I love the 1.9 Wraith builds! "thumbsup"

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Like where this is going.

Looks like you may have done this sort of stuff before. :ROR:

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Looks great Brandon. Can wait to see the body go on it.

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Body is mounted, I'm in love. Has such a unique/scale look "thumbsup"

I need to sort out a front bumper now.

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

That looks brill, beats the hell out of my scruffy looking bashed up attempt at a SCXWraith combo.

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

killer....nice change to a wraith..."thumbsup"
nice paint too...

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Motivation is a good thing "thumbsup"

Thanks! Seats are the stock black version used in the Wraith kit, I didn't touch them, but I agree, the black looks the best.

Thanks Dez!

Thanks FR, I'm a bit rusty but this one is coming together nicely.

Its on!

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Nice paint "thumbsup"

How you will fit a hood on it's place? maybe, hinges?

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Thanks guys!

Yup, its hinged. Still need to adjust it a bit and attached the top of the fenders to the cage so they dont move around. It also snags on the grill a bit so I need to trim a bit more there.

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

what links are those, honcho? dingo? Incredible build..

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Neither. I went through some trial and error to get the wheelbase to match the openings on the body.

Keep in mind the SCX10/AX10 axles have the AX80043 4-Link Axle truss installed.

Front Lower links: AXA1427 50mm posts with AX80005 bent ends on one side, and the short bent AX80057 ends on the other.

Front Upper Links: AXA1427 50mm posts with AX80057 short bent ends on both ends.

Rear upper and lower links: AX30714 7x73 Links with the long bent rod ends from AX80057 on each end.

Ill add some pics in a minute.

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Detailed pics of the assembled 4 links.

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Looking good!

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Looking good Brandon!

How does the front flex with those short links, any bind or did you limit the shocks?

I love it! Can't wait to see it in a few weeks. "thumbsup"

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

B!!! Very nice work, I have been wanting to do a Wraith 1.9 build for a while now. This just may be my insperation just like the old days:mrgreen: Looking foward to the rest of the build"thumbsup"

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

imo, this has to be best the wrath i've seen, also how do 1.9 axial ripsaws compare to 1.9 proline tsl.

thanks
"thumbsup"

Re: Brandon's 1.9 Wraith Build
 

Thanks Ty!

Thanks Chino, The front flex isn't too bad. I brought the front upper links in at the chassis so they wouldn't bind and this helped a lot. Currently its limited by the tires rubbing the chassis and body :ror:

Thanks James! I hope to make some good progress on it this weekend.

Thanks, not too sure how they compare directly to the tsl's. I have not ran them. But these 1.9 Ripsaw's have been my favorite for almost a year now!
