Default Sophie's comp truck......

Well, she is still a little young for a comp but she likes trying to break this thing.

1/18th Nylint axles,
Duratrax esc,
losi mini battery and servo,
TQ2 radio,
pede wheels,
Proline hammers,
HPI bug body,
home brew chassis I made in 2005....

Hey Kamikaze would you like to adopt a 29yo from Greece no expenses whatsoever, you just build me the occasional truck from what is left from Sophies' trucks.. Don't let your "boss" read this! Wish my dad ever took a moment to do stuff for me:?

That looks like it was a fun project to build. Being different is not a bad thing. Good job my friend!

I was wondering what the chassis was made from and in the pic, is that all the articulation that this type of chassis can get?Also could you show a diagram or something as to how you wired your esc to the motors in the axles?I have the Duratrax esc also. Mine says 12T modified and i was wondering which one you used?

Thanks
