My new FOFF build

[West Cork Basher]

Hi Guys.
Finaly I can post a build in the FOFF thread..
Been on the forum for a few months now and have been asking silly question

I've wanted a full blown FOFFer since I first heard about them on this forum

I've posted up my AX-10 build in that section.
Mad mAX-10..ProLine Tuber Cage Build.. - RCCrawler.com Bulletin Board
But now that the AX is a brushless FOFF ,
I'm moving over to the dark side.

My new SCX chassis arrived today,,

Yeah. I'd come to a stand still with my AX FOFFer , theres only so much you can do with that style of chassis.. but it was a learning curve

The side mounted servo is stolen from Benders SCX FOFF build
Formula Offroad - Next Big Thing in R/C?

So if it's good enough for Bender it's good enough for me...

Yep, great talking with you aswell Calvin ..

[West Cork Basher]

Looks splash proof to me Just don't teach it swimming lessons yet! I know regular brush motors aren't to picky about water, I dunno about brushless tho.

Ah i forgot to mention that I am part irish also... no wonder we got along so well on Skype! And... looks like I can ship the links cheap via priority mail, itll be slow tho
