Default Haastnooit's YTC Secret Agent 3.5

After gathering parts for over two months, I am finally ready to start my new build ... Progress will be slow as usual .... I am not shooting for a super lightweight rig, but I will see where the parts I got for it will take this rig .... Maybe there will be some dieting when the initial build is finished ...

So far I got the rear axle done, here are the specs:

Rear Axle

Axial XR10 axle case
Axial XR10 axle shafts
Axial XR10 gears
BWD Motor Sav’r
NCD CF rear axle brace
NCD CF linkmount spacers
TRX oilite bushings #3775
VP linkmount
VP gearbox
VP motorplate
VP lockouts

Mods:
- brass inserts
- axle shave
- cut Motor Sav’r

Thanks Crawlrking

Just changed the startpost ... I don't know what happened with the text color, and some of the text disappeared ... guess it has something to do with me copying the text from a dutch bulletinboard. Anyhow I fixed it

DAMN BRUTHA....ABSOLUTELY KILLER PICS!!! This is almost like a catalog. Nice clean mods & upgrades, sexy CF everywhere, all that black & white. Is it weird that I'm turned on a little?

Seriously...this is a VERY clean build thread so far & I'm diggin it. NICE WORK.

Correct ... a little more (possible) steering angle and smoother operation throughout the whole cycle. I believe not all sets XR10 universals need the mod, if you do you should probably be able to see some bind marks on the ears. I have two sets running and both needed the mod, however there was a noticable difference between the two ....

[edit] Random Hero could you delete the pics from your quote ? Thanks

Thanks everyone Wheels are not ready yet ... guess I am slowing down a little, however I did manage to get the chassis and axle's mated up.

Next task is some CF beadlock wheel assembly and some tire shaving ...

Thanks guys You can take your time Douwe .... next job is electronics .... so things will really slow down now.

I haven't done a dual ESC setup before, so I have to do a bit of study on that. Offcourse I want to decase and smash it .... will see what comes of that. I also got a new TX for this rig, a Futaba 4PL, so have to learn how to program and bind everything ...... I feel a bit nervous about all this, so I am going to take my time . Any tips are welcome
