AX30571 Pinion 48P 13T – Steel
Machined Upper Links (From AZrcdriver)
Stock wheels for now with Axial & VP weights

BWD
Front Servo Brace
Rear Axle Brace
Extended Steering Arm
High Clearance Delrin Links
Electronics Tray


Misc.
2- Castle Mamba Micro Pros
1- Castle BEC
2- Tekin T45's Rock Crawler Motor
Hitec 7955 Servo
Robitronic Servo Arm ( R17002 )
Spektrum 3-Channel Sport Surface Receiver
wantAsummit Dual ESC adapter
4 HB Rovers w/ Proline Dual Stage Foams
(Boss Claws as well off the LCC)

I am also going to start with the stock chassis.

Oops, added the Castle BEC to the list.

No pics yet.

Got the motor plates today and a few more parts still in transit.

Front axle is built so far.

Okay, got it done today and even took it outside for a test over single landscape rocks around the complex. The big test will be in the morning when we take it for a real test run.

The rig was impressive in its first little test run....

Well Burgie,

I think it turned out fantastic if I say so myself.....

Now to get it out there and scuff the heck out of it and make it look like a working crawler and not a shelf queen all polished and pretty...haha

We took the rig out and gave it the official test run and it performed top notch, didn't show any clod stall and the WAS control worked great.

Hated to get it scratched up but it was going to happen at some point,
the pictures don't show how sweet it looked...

His 45t Tekins while a touch slower than my V11 35t didn't clod stall.

Funny how I set it better than on my own truck...
