I am Jealous of that BWD Chasiis build. The BWD is a amazing chassis. The ultimate for a Foff, Can't wait to see the video. I am waiting on the final faze of my build. After eight months of trying, finally got a painter doing the body for mine. I should be posting pictures the second week of June.

"We need more power Scotty" Ordered up some 4s 3000mah paks that will fit perfect in Wraith batt tray that was installed earlier.

Thanks Hacksaw. I'm with ya! Homebrew is a awesome build also. I've read every letter you have typed. Examind every pic you have posted. Not once, but 10 times. Your advice is well recieved. But being hardheaded and prepared, I'm going with it as is at least once.

It's better to try and fail than not try at all. Ah chit, I like breakin' and fixin' stuff! Apparently I'm not alone. I think I'll be breaking more than just servo gears!

Thanks Hacksaw. Much appreciated! We shall see how she goes
Looking foward to the classic phrase "I told you so".
Really don't need to be a psychic to predict the inevitable.

Got some Power Strokes USPS. Heeded a fellow OFFer's advice and installed servo saver, bending my ego somewhat, but showing that I don't have complete disrespect for my equiptment. Hence, heavier motor and batt, heavier shocks. Drag links: steel upper, Delrin lower. Slowly depleting horsies to weight ratio.
Sand paws for my first run. Paddles for beach.
