What are the "must have's" for this rig to make it functional? Helical gears I assume, probably the CV axles? Transmission and t-case gears okay?
Found this on CL Rc4wd trail finder2 rock crawler

I would say so. I didn't know if he had placed the order for the rig or not.

DJI Phantom 2 Vision Plus has been ordered!

I also ordered a GPC backpack case for it. I spent some time yesterday cleaning up my hobby room, getting the Yeti running, and tearing down the Exo XJ. Gonna re do the front bumper on that thing.

I'm going to be getting rid of my scale garage, just takes up way too much space. Any takers on the workbench, engine hoist, pallet, and flammable storage cabinet?

I just have Melons.
I took a peep at the lakefront in Evanston this morning, looks like the rocks were clear of snow but the water/beach were still covered in 5 feet of snow.

hoopty, can you swing by the Foster/LSD spot after work Friday (or whenever) to see if it's good to go?

I'd hate for people to drive in from the burbs and not be able to play... like last time.

I might be interested if it's Sunday. Let me know today or tomorrow so I can arrange a baby sitter. We went out last weekend but there was a lot of snow still.
