Nice looking yeti but way too clean needs some dirt
Which gearing you set with your esc/motor combo (love mine great choice by the way) i'm now at 64/16 but i think i will go a little lower next, first with 64/19 it was way toooo fast

Are those real headlight buckets in the front of the body? Those front headlights look great.

I’m at 13/64 at the mo, it’s got axle snapping torque and still a decent bit of wheel speed

Yes, the kit comes with them, it’s on my list of things to do is to fit LEDs in them and the rear light bar, I did just notice the bucket on the left wasn’t straight lol, here’s a better pic

nice! I've got a kit sitting here, but I haven't been able to dig into it yet. I didn't realize it came with those. Maybe I'll keep the stock body after all!

Fitted a set of limiting straps to the rear, they started off with orange ends, but I striped off the anodising

Nice looking kit you got there. Been reading some build threads while I'm waiting for mine to arrive in the next couple of days
Can you post some pics of the wiring for the headlights?
