Snowman (the Abominable) is still in utero, but I started painting him today. Black and blue to begin with. I am very curious to see what he'll look like when I peel off the last masking.

Tried out 6S for the first time in anger today...its evil compared to the 4S Ive been using. Running 23T 56Spur...it went across the grass rapidly...trying to use full throttle was rather difficult. The interesting was my 8yr old and 13yr old were better at controlling the car than me and my Dad were...seems we are just getting old !

Now that the yeti score kit has come in, I placed an order for a bunch of vanquish parts and the Exotek racing hdx chassis.

Default What did you do to/with your Yeti today?

The vp parts I ordered and the Exotek hdx chassis came in. I was able to get the trans mounted with 56t spur and vp motor mount and cam. Also the steering in; vp posts, bellcrank and steering rack. As well as the front diff, 20k fluid with vp shock tower. Also got the rear potion of the chassis on. Still need to mount the arms and the rest of the front end. Unfortunately I hit a snag!



Thanks to axial quality control, I have a front bumper mount with 3 of the 4 holes in it!

Mine came in like that too. Held me up by about 11 seconds. This is a kit after all. Grab your drill and bits and get to work.

Well the SCORE bodyshell doesnt seem to strong so far.

Ive found that even 4S is a bit much and things are getting lots of play in them or breaking.....so Ive removed the MMX and 2200KV and put in a castle sidewinder and castle 1410-3800kv. Will only run on 3S. So the MMX and 2200KV will go in the bomber now. Ive ordered a cheap GoolRC 3660 3800KV to go with the sidewinder so it free's up my castle 3800 to go with the Mamba X it was taken from. Hopefully the GoolRC will be ok just to mess around with...

Realized I never posted any pics of the Exotek chassis so might as well post them here as I don’t have a build thread.

Also just ordered an ssd wide centered rear axle, vp twin hammers trailing arms and vp wraith uppers. As this is getting shrunk down to a 1/10 sct size to make it different from the b1b

Picked up a hobbywing xr8 sct esc and a proline flotek raptor body for the swb yeti. Will also soon be ordering another hdx chassis to have a stock wheelbase yeti tt as well

No pic at the moment. But I finished soldering a hobbywing 3660 3600kv motor to the xr8 esc. This thing is getting closer and closer to being ready to run. Look for a build thread soon!

I bought a nice used Yeti for $200...does that count? Has aluminum upgrades...front A arms, steering bell crank (not installed yet), trailing and suspension arms, pro-line beadlocks with new super swamper tires. All I had to do was add my rx/tx which I already had.

Sleeving was easy, just a bit of work to cut the stainless.
