Re: From the "tub up"
 

I don't know why you wouldn't simply pull to the 55 out to use with an older radio, but it's your money. Just keep them out of the wet. I lost a tactic servo last year to water from melting snow. Now I only buy waterproof.

Re: From the "tub up"
 

I think you need to elaborate on this a bit, not by a thousand words perhaps, but the picture ain't tellin' me nothing. You gonna build a Bomber?

Re: From the "tub up"
 

maybe the inspiration for this or just a teaser :mrgreen:

Re: From the "tub up"
 

I was able to return the 55 and exchange for the 57 for only a few extra bucks.
Where I run my rigs water is not an issue "thumbsup"

Re: From the "tub up"
 

I’m so close to being finished (waiting on RR 18t pinion, TSX 57 servo, & RPM esc cage) that I am already looking ahead. The good news is as it sits now it’s “ scooting” around the garage nicely. And yes a Bomber would be my next project "thumbsup"
I was getting pumped up looking at the KOH website.

Re: From the "tub up"
 

IT’S DONE !!! :mrgreen:
That first RPM esc mount was totally bogus, new one works fine :ror:
I’m happy with Robinson racing 18 t pinion and Gen 3 spur"thumbsup"
Street testing on 4 s went well.

I was able to purchase a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon body on Amazon :ror:
It may be my body of choice. Look familiar? See post #183

Re: From the "tub up"
 

Well it’s been six months and bags of $$$
I really appreciate everyone’s help. Patience was important for a project like this and the price tag was a little over the top. I consider it allowance well spent ;-)
All things considered, every vendor was helpful (Ottsix could have been better) with issues I encountered. Final steps will be the Jeep body and the back order interior which won’t come until mid December. I’m looking forward to hitting the trails and getting it dirty.
So here are my gratuitous completion pictures including Family shots.
I’ll update when new body and interior are done "thumbsup"

Re: From the "tub up"
 

WTF! :x
Doing a simple shocks test, dropping from 12 inches and the shaft on the proline sheared clean off. I’m returning for replacement. I may put them on the back of my RTR and go with Icons for the front of my project.

Outstanding performance overall "thumbsup" SSD 2 speed worked great :) Holmes Hobby motor/servo/ Mamba X combo barely got warm... great speed and excellent crawling ability using SMC 4 s 5600
Sad to see it getting scuffed up:cry: but knew that was coming.

Re: From the "tub up"
 

Going to give the Proline Wrangler Rubicon a try. It will be my second time painting, first time cutting:roll:. I’ll be spending time in the Paint and Body forum. Wish me luck....

Re: From the "tub up"

Re: From the "tub up"
 

DOH! Lost the screw shaft to my MIP rear C drive bashing today :x can’t find a replacement in my parts box. Is HW-SHSS/ M3 x .099 Pin Screw (2) #99062 the correct part?
