It will get ran stock once. Then I'll be changing it in preparation of the G6 this weekend in Buena Vista, CO. I'm traveling out with Jason and we are both going to see what we can manage to do with them. I'll make sure to document all the changes I'll be making for that.

Not a wise move, Over time WD40 will ruin plastic parts it makes it brittle and it'll crack.

First quick video is done while I continue to edit the LOOONG one

Most of this will not be new to all of you more savvy members of RCC. It's more of a newb to the genre type video... or 99% of youtube.

I'm ordering one soon. It'll be my first rc in about five years. I've had a lot of various ideas for projects over the years but never got over my obsession with an IFS Ultra4 truck. Especially since this is from Axial, there'll be so many different ways to build it into something even better. I'm gonna need to find an Ultra4 comp in Colorado...

I like the SCX10 mount for the cage and body. I'm going to have to get a body and cage set to put on my old scx10 chassis with 2.2s and Wraith axles. Should make a pretty cool solid axle U4 car.

I used PAM cooking spray on the plastics of the dirt bikes back in the day. The mud that managed to cling to the fenders would come right off with a garden hose.

when you/someone who has a Yeti now,
& plan on changing there upper & steering links - to a metal links with ball ends.

could let us know what length the steering link now needs to be ??
with the new Yeti hub design.

upper links need to be 65mm with short ball ends - if the same as the EXO !
would be nice to know - so some of us can start making our own links !!

I believe they are all 77mm eye to eye, but I will double check that tonight.
