salvation it's been a while since I've met, all it takes to make a home made WRAITH, I missed more than courage to attack, started last February, I had a long stand by In short, the config will be the following: Axles TOPCAD aluminum gimbal with AXIAL LINKS ALU Servo HITEC 7955 Vario CASTEL SV3 35T engine INTEGY Alloy wheels 2.2 GMADE shocks 103mm Drive shaft steel JUNFAC Home made full cage Outbreak of hostilities in my workshop discovered That's the moment Remains to weld the cage and grind welds I attacked the aluminum hood and a battery holder under the hood. Remains to be done inside to be able to fix the seats and a faux tank which fitted vario and RX thank you Cédric |

Turned out great! Liking that blue color. Lots of work to build something like this. Most "wraith" guys might just not appreciate that. May of gotten some more love in the 2.2 scale section.

Hi and thank you for your comments. Indeed, there is a lot of work to achieve this kind of frame. I put a box of RX AXIAL SCX10 to simulate a tank and also put my RX inside. The aluminum hood is not painted aluminum but will look. I sanded it to give a non-visible effect on pictures. I also thought about putting my wraith in section 2.2 |

Is that using a MIG welder? Looks great! Also, what wheels are those?

What brand are the shocks in pic#4 ? I've seen 'em before but couldn't figure out the manufacturer.

Hello. Yes, I weld with a MIG, it's easier and faster. The wheels are TOPCAD Axial Wraith Aluminum 2.2 8-Spoke Bead-lock Wheel & Tire Set (2) Silver TopCad 23049 For shocks of the photo 4, they are really HOT RACING but they are not very effective |
