uh... hey? so don't get me wrong fellas i really do think this rig is incredible. i just hope there is... more? that can be done to it later? i know its impossible to make EVERYONE happy. and i tend to gravitate more towards scale stuff than capability (if you saw my brown ford with 1.55 dirt grabbers you understand lol) so obviously i, me, personally, would expect to see a forward motor or even scale drivetrain on a rig of this... "caliber". (there, i didn't say "price") just voicing my opinion, and not bashing the incredible work you are all doing here. like i said, its impossible to mass produce the PERFECT rig for EVERYONE. that's where the fun of customization comes in. i just hope this has room for that. like some expansion kit or something later on? i dunno, just spitballing. that way you could get the rig out here for current... cost, and offer even MORE for future enhancement and keep customers coming back for more to enhance this rig even further? not telling you how to run your business either, like i said, just ideas. TL;DR: nice truck! can we get (more) aftermarket parts for this rig made up entirely of aftermarket awesomeness? keep doing rad things |

now THAT is a good answer!!! also that pic is awesome. love the hockey stripes. Matt, hockey is this thing people play where the object of the game is to push a little thing called a puck across ice and into a goal. you push (or hit) it with a stick. its shaped like an "L". hence: HOCKEY STRIPE. ;) (disclaimer: i have never played hockey nor do i profess to know anything about it other than what it is. I'm from san diego we don't have "ICE"! lol) |

| ![]() axle is blurry. most of the focus is on the grill/ bumper. side note, the tread looks like km3 almost. its similar. I can see though that the knuckles are double sheer. all in all its a nice kit. might be the best kit out to date. my comment about the transmission might have been misinterpreted. putting or moving that weight forward kinda makes no difference. because now, you would have to relocate the battery and servo winch. the only reason I could see the need to move the motor forward is if a heavy motor was being used. but like I said.. it doesn't take long to make a fwd mounted motor with a trans. or using a gearbox in the front with the motor mounted to it driving power to a t case mounted on the skid. to make it look nice.. yeah.. it can take longer. depends how much time you want to sit down at a desk. we want to see pictures. but we cant pick and choose what pictures you guys release. I like natural taken photos. but im not the photographer. |

Now your front tire and grill are fuzzy and out of focus.

I'm a fan of Vanquish. The idea of buying an RC completely sorted and upgraded by the best in the business defeats the entire reason I do RC in the first place. For me, the actual build process, and progression of upgrades is my favorite part of the hobby. The learning experience and interaction on the forums about what works what doesn't etc... I compare these high end of Vanquish RC to Capo RC. Will these niche products companies money? Nope. Is it about passion and getting the best product out there that they can? Absolutely... Definitely not for me though.... I've never understood the RTR side of the hobby, but I'm happy it's kept it alive... | |

Axial gets you in the door, vanquish takes the money. Vanquish imho should have offered a kit from the ground up a few years ago. Sent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk | |

Let's see a freaking video! The more photos I see the more I like the truck. The body and bumpers combo is sweet. Quote:
