Default Newbie from Southeast PA

Hello Everyone,

Just got my Axial Wraith last week and have already started running it and even made it to a crawling ground this past weekend. I have always been interested in RCs, from boats and a clodbuster when I was little. I still have thoses but now have a quadcopter and tank to add to the mix.

Had a great paycheck the other week and decided it was time to spend some of it. After researching on Youtube and the web decided to purchase something form Axial. The wraith caught my eye immediately and I decided to go with the RTR version.

I am currently running a set of Venom 7.4 40C 5000 Mah LIPO batteries. Haven't even spent the first pack yet.

This is what I have done so far:
1. Level 3 droop kit
2. Axial aluminum servo horn
3. SSD titanium draglink and tie rod.

Definitely want to look at the shocks and springs next. I even more importantly also look at diff. covers and other body/components protection. Already noticing my diff covers getting torn up. Stinger bumper would be nice as well.

In terms of location I am in Southeast PA near Pottstown and Quakertown. Would be interested in any groups/clubs in the area. I seem to be shooting for scale crawling at this point.

Welcome to the addiction. I wish I could be more involved, but such is life with a 4 year old and going back to school........sigh. I live in Werleys Corner/New Tripoli area which is just north of Allentown. Welcome again.


Cheers,
Wade

Wow, can't believe there is a member here that is so close to me, thanks for the info about the club. I actually went to modellbahnotts up on rt100 this past weekend and tested out the rig.

Thanks for the kind welcomes everyone!

Thanks for the welcome guys, trying to joining EPARCC the other week but haven't heard back from them yet. Found the president from EPARCC on here and am seeing if I can get some help.
