My Axial Wraith Build

RTR Axial Wraith
Integy 55 turn brushed
Hitec servo
Vanquish Axles
Vanquish Diff Covers
Vanquish Knuckles and Chubs
Vanquish upper and lower links
secret length droop setup shocks
CKRC Lowering Kit
CKRC Foreward Battery Bracket
CKRC 2 cell Lipo Batteries
CKRC 5mm Wheel Wideners on the front wheels only
CKRC straight steering arm kit
Axial heavy duty servo arm
Toyota Hilux Pickup body chopped and bobbed!

+Hours and hours of custom chopping and fabricating the Frame and New Body

Ive had a bunch of fun building this thing up slowly and enjoy staring at it for long periods and of course it shreds. Me and my buddy (Dirty530Crawlers) will be posting some sick youtube videos in HD verry soon so stay tuned in.
Has anybody found a servo that is a good price but has stupid power? because ive purchased 4 servos and im still not happy...
Thanks

I found an own metal gear servo that does 284 oz for around $35 on eBay. Have one in my wraith (hilux also) and my scaler. No bec and it's still strong and holds up well!

Diggin the hilux wraiths! As for the servo I'm using a JR 8911hv it has 470oz-in of torque and .12 seconds transit at 7.4 volts. I'm running at 6v with the internal Bec on my MMP and it's awesome!!! Best servo I've ran, tons of power and super strong gears!

Love the trucks with exception to steering links. I wasn't a fan of that system, thought the performance was very poor in comparison to drag link.

Just waiting to get my Stinger front bumper, Rock Sliders, and Panhard CMS now. Its finally starting to look scale-ish. I know my tires would be 49s but i love the axle clearance.

So here is an update of it ive done a few things like the bumpes front and rear and making it a closed cab, took some work! Im going to make the same design but with some steel rod in two months when I get layed off. if you look in the cab you can see where I velcro the battery in where the passenger seat used to be works really well going through the window. Ill post pics of the new cage and body soon!
