| Wild Willy 3
It's time for a new theme for my Wraith. I don't know if it's been done before because it's hard to keep up with all the Wraith builds out there but here is my version. Wild Willy 3. ESC:Castle Creations SideWinder. Motor:Traxxas Velineon. BEC:Turbofix. Servo:Stock.(almost dead but tougher than i thought it would be) Old vid: Stay tuned for more.

Thanks,man. The grill is made out of 1 mm thick aluminum sheet. V2.0 will be made out of 40x40x3 mm angle aluminum to increase strength. The parts i cut off. Last edited by 4wd4ws; 10-11-2012 at 10:25 AM. |

Began modifying the rear of the chassis to make sure it will blend in with the new theme. To shorten the chassis i will bring this piece 58 mm forward. In order to do that these parts were cut off. The result so far. Last edited by 4wd4ws; 10-11-2012 at 10:38 AM. |
