Picked up some link material this mourning and went to work. The Willy's is a roller! I'm digging this thing.

I decided to run a droop setup on the Willy's. Got rid of the springs and thru on some G-Made Transitions. I've dropped it as low as I can and am satisfied with the look. Triton transfer case came in also so now I can measure for the drive shafts. Things should speed up a bit now.

Made some more progress today. I was getting ready to measure for drive shafts and remembered all the MIP and Junfac parts I have laying around. I forgot I had two NIP sets of MIP's and a decent Junfac. Well, that saved a little coin and they fit perfect! The Juncrap will be gone really soon. Getting closer.......

Not sure if people really know this but the Dragon Willy's is a actual model. I believe that's why there is so much detail to them.

I started laying out the electronics today. I set the two speed trans and motor off at a angle to keep the drive line nice and straight to the transfer case. It also gave me room for the 2 speeds servo and the battery. Thinking it's going to work good.

Dropped the new Savox 1230 and BEC and took it out for a quick run. Some front knuckle weights will do it good. 2nd Gear: |
