Got my transmission today. Take out of a RTR. Great shape! Motor mount plate Will be her in 24-48 It is out of a SCX-10 and it doesn't have the extended mechanism for a DIG. I believe that Harley does the same thing with his rigs. My motor plate should be here tomorrow or Friday. SCX-10 Axles ordered. They will be here in 4-5 days Last edited by DrDiff952; 05-02-2014 at 09:51 PM. |

Major problems almost killed the build. Legality of this truck. It is illegal for 2.2 class but legal for 1.9 class. OK.

Rules sure do have a way of bringing a guy down. Pretty sure you'll like the 1.9 class. Our local club has a good turn out. |

it sounds as if I can put 1.9's on it and run the 1.9 weekend warrior class or run 2.2's and run the overkill class..of course time bandit will be in the overkill class. I was thinking it would be cool if they had a couple wraith only classes..we will have to see...I dont know how many wraiths actually run at these events..

The Weekend Warrior Wraith got some stuff today. What else do you do with the stuff you pull off when upgrading a Wraith? BUILD A NEW ONE! Stock Axial Slipper Clutch assembly and the gears from the O.P.A.T. Wraith. The Traxxas motor will come over as well. The stock Axial motor plate will be brought over to the WWW tomorrow. Eventually these will be upgraded to match what is in the O.P.A.T. Wraith. SCX-10 axles will be here early next week, And I have borrowed a servo to mock up the WWW. The goal is to Eventually have Short ProLine Big Bore Power Stroke Shocks on it from the Traxxas Slash, for now it will do with Axial kit shocks. I have the AE-2 ESC that has been fully converted to Dean's Ultras and will eventually get another Castle Creations BEC and Savöx 1231SG servo. I want to try making my own seats Axial seats may be pretty but are too heavy. I have a source for some sheet metal. Tire wise I want to get a set of ProLine Super Swamper TSL XL in the G6/soft compound. I am leaning to the same closed cell Crawler Innovations foams that are in the O.P.A.T.

The rear link length, has been determined but the front links are going to be shorter than the collection of SCX-10 links that I have. I think I am going to get some 6-32 rod, revo ball ends and some brake line and build my own. |
