maybe now ill spend less time on the lid and more time on the rubber

my robinson gear is in the mail. thats the reason for lack of driveline and motor

i went round and round after making the cut, i dont realy care for the links. i just orderd a wraith skid plate and think ill take this to the next level. might even have to scab together another rig. i cant call it wraith because it wont be. itl be built with my 1:1 in mind.

i am digging the over look of chopped rear end and the much easier battery axcess. may have even shed alittle weight in the rear. with my front bumper im not sure theres a need to front mount a battery but i might try it anyways. though my esc might have to go to back and im not sure if a 2200 or the esc is heavier.

also the dang camera made the white realy pop. i was going to edit but i was lazy

You should have room to put the battery and ESC up front. In my trucks I have the battery up front and ESC in the back. I have a build thread for my new truck.

im running a 150amp 1/8scale esc. its to wide to fit in the battery tray. though i could take the battery tray out and make a dedicated esc tray in the mid section
