Had my sons bday party today and just didn't get a chance to put it together.....
1st thing in the morning tho.....


I Don thing the mrc axles will be a problem. I honestly think the velineon motor will ejust spin the the tires no matter how badly I get it bound up.

So, here's what the setup will be......

Mixer tvp's connected to a mystery skid....
Mistery tranny....
Mistery driveshafts
Velineon motor
Castle Mamba Esc
Delrin links
Mrc axles bolted locked and shimmed
Hi-tech 645 servo
Traxxas reciever....

I'm not gonna do the rear steer, or the dig... but once I throw it all together it'll b prefect....

Gonna run a 2s 1000mah 30c furniture lipo.....

I ran into one small snag during my test fitting phase late last night...

I'm gonna have to make a custom skid to mount this tranny to, or come up with some other way to mount it to the tvps.

I thought I would add that the reason I'm not doing dig and rear steer is not because it'll be hard or impossible. But more because I don't have those parts.... doesn't matter really, once I mount the tranny you'll see just how easy it is to add dig, and everyone already knows how to do rear steer so no biggie there.

So, if the Dremel is to the Egg as the Build is to the Chicken - we have an answer! ...Or, would the Dremel be the chicken?

Well its obvious he needs to have the build done before he can fix the dremel. Its nearly impossible to cut a skid plate without a built rig for measurements

And we shoud probably stop talking about chickens and eggs. We don't want him to get hungry and put the build on hold while he eats
