Finally finished the Wraith MOA

[jaloos]

Finally got this beast done. I used some Bully axles for a MOA version of the wraith.

Took a while to get it done esp since I went a little overboard on the scale stuff.

Will expand the post a little later when I have more time.

Just so you know, you will never be done with it! There will ALWAYS be something new to add, change, modify, remove......ALWAYS!

But its good to see that you are done with version 1! LOL

That is an awesome creation....curious to see how it performs.

looks great!

Nice outside the box thinking!!!!!

[jaloos]

Got the thing out onthe rocks today and all I can say is pretty impressed with it. It is definatly a crawler and handles the rocks real well. The front and rear dig are a huge help and the esc mixing giving adjustable front and rear over/under drive is huge when climbing and descending.

All inall very impressed, its a little more top heavythan I would have thought and takes some finess as opposed to my comp crawler but man it does real well. No speed demon here though.

Gonna try a set of blue dot voodoo crawler tires on it and see how much better I canget it to crawl the rocks.

Few more.

Looks great!

Question: Any real benefit to running the shocks upside down? Would presume less chance of leaks, but does it work in practice?

I have them upside down for clearence.

They have the Wicked Wolf Caps and I used longer rod ends, Jato I believe.

With the Bully axles there isn't allot of room to play around with onthe front so pulling the shock body as far out of the way as possible is a bonus.

Thanks.

Actually just mounted a full set of Voodoo Blues to those rims with CI DD foams and a little extra ring of my own making to deal with the big weight of the rig.

I think they'll work great!

I have no doubt I have the silvers on the chaotic chassis and they are amazing.
