Default 1.9 Wraith-TJ build

Started a 1.9 Wraith build with the spar-parts i had laying around...

Some of the ingredients:

AX10 tranny with VP Hurtz dig
Trackstar 13.5 sensored brushless motor
AX10 Axles stock gearing, front with narrow XR10 steering mod.
Turnigy 959 alloy servo on axle
Castle MMP
Turnigy BEC 6V 3-5A
AX10 Shocks semi-droop?
Proline TSL XL on axial 8-hole with custom beadlock rings
HPI TJ lexan body








Made a new bracket to suport a mini-servo for the dig:

The body is biggest work...
But i really like how this looks!

i mounted the rearend with some links i had laying around, but the are too long, i will move the axle a few mm forward.

Shock options is the next problem.
i have 4 brandnew Proline powerstroke SCX 90mm shocks but the seem to be too short....
in the pics i tried AX10 shox half droop they seem to be right in length but not scale...

Almost a roller!
I went back to the proline 90mm shocks and like the ride hight.
But i dont think thi is the final setup... might try some 100mm shocks!

The recycling continous ! Used some old Axial shafts to connect the swaybar arms to the axle.

The Interior fits, installed some cheap seats from Dinky RC to save some weight.





Sunk the winch flat to the bumper, now it looks scale!

Are you having any binding issues with your steering links flipped?

No, steering works great! I use XR10 knuckles and c's. together with Wraith plates.


Anyone know about a 3D printed TJ grill or another way to make a grill more TJ likish?

Sorry for the late answere...

The rig handles great, it dosnt have much travel but at the other side its realy stable.
Now we have snow and my playground is frozen up... but i want to test it more and also wirhout the swaybar to see the difference.
