|  c0bra's.......wraith!
Considering ive already had 2 wraiths before. which ended up selling the chassis both times within a week of buying them. this one will be different! i have plans for this one, honestly im not sure were those plans will take me but here it goes  im picking up a used wraith from another member with a scx10 axles and trans. its not here yet because im still waiting for paypal to clear. all i know that has been done to it is the axles have HD lockers and are locked solid.... not sure with what but will find that out! the trans has metal outputs on it. even though the wraith obviously isnt here yet i already got the first round of parts ordered from rpp. im picking up 2 complete wraith front axles, strc rear lockouts, ar60 rear straight axles, dinky rc drop box in black, and dinky rc six pack roof in black. electronics will be a mmp castle 1406 4pole align ds610 servo spektrum sr300rx and a spektrum glitch buster it will eventually get leds in it that will be powered by a 9v battery hidden somewere with a switch to turn them on or off. will post pics of everything when it gets here! hopefully that will be sometime next week!

sounds like a good one. the aftermarket support for these things is endless. always have wanted to pick up a stock wraith and just build the most bomb wraith ever, but my wallet would be mad at me.  |

yeah its crazy that we spend this much money on them but like my family tells me, its better than drugs lol. i totally agree with that too, i get enjoyment out of these things and my gf also loves them so we get to spend time together so the money is worth it! im hoping december or january ill have all my partsfor this build and am going to do a build thread i cant wait for that!

i have a question for you guys. im going to put leds in this rig. right now with the dinky rc roof panel there is enough spots to put 12 leds in it. thats 6 on the roof, the stock 4 up front, and 2 in the rear. any ideas for more spots to put the leds? paypal finally cleared for the wraith just waiting on shipping! | |

i figured out how the leds will be controlled as long as i can get the right kind of connector. it will be 2 controllers and up to 24 leds! i will let you guys know more after i find out if the connector is available! Sent from my iPod touch using Tapatalk |
