|  My sons WK tuber Here is my boys WK tuber. The frame was built by BrandO from what I was told. He traded his CC-01 FJ Cruiser for this with HaPTOAD a while back. Now I am reworking it to get it where he wants it. Waiting on the 55 turn lathe motor and I need to swap out his servo for a high torque servo. More on this later. On to the pics...  flex shots...   |

| the sticker on the servo mount was there when i recieved it. i have made 2 of them like it for a friends WK. i can't take the credit though. HaPTOAD might be able to help on who made it. the wheelbase sits at 13 1/4". my boy traded this for my other bruiser hybrid then traded it back because he couldn't wheel the hybrid the way he can with this one(he's rough with his rigs). thanks for the comments. once his motor comes in it should be ready for a shakedown. |

| Do you have better pics of the servo mount. It can't just be one screw holding it is it. |

| my son gets impatient after awhile. if he gets in a situation, he will find a way to get out by full throttling his rig! i have to stay away from him with my rigs or i will end up taking on some damage. lol |

| Don't know how I missed this one, but its perty cool! Do you have any problems with that esc getting hot? I know you're not supposed to run amps upside down because it doesn't allow the heat to escape efficiently, just curious if the same was true in this case. |
