Plastic trailing arms on RTRs is common. Kits, like the Bomber, have the aluminum strengtheners included. | |

Just saw this today and I really want it! Aesthetically I love the way the rig looks. Plus, with them building all the forward weight bias stuff into it it seems to me like it's just a simple battery relocation away from being competitive right away depending on electronics. The axles look great. I was already thinking about doing a U4 rig, this seems like it could be the one, and for a lot cheaper then my buddies running UCFab or Mattzilla rigs (not that I'm hating on UCF or MZ, I'm just too poor to have one yet, haha) |

Not sure where the battery could get much better, I spent a bunch of time to put it there in the Wraith Hang up and Drive |

This is what I imagined the Wraith 2.0 could've been, & what the layout of future scalers should be.

I have plenty of toys. Some even already use bomer parts. I'm prolly gonna go bomer just because I can have parts that will fit multiple rigs. Nice try gmade haha. Still a sick looking rig.

I set a google alert for this, so i had it preordered within minutes of it being added to hobbytown's website. I am amazed by this rig. Seems like they have really been paying attention to whats out there and what we want. Hex hardware is a good indication of this. I love that it is in kit form only.. I enjoy the build too much to buy RTR. Hope it ships soon.. I'm really excited to put this together. |

Sweet. A mini Vekta 5. Specs look good and the buy in is tempting.
