My RS10-XT build thread

[BackToThePast]

Hey guys, I just dropped the prices for the complete electronics, custom radio, and axles. $150 plus shipping for all of it. It's EVERYTHING you can do to the axles and electronics for these trucks... I'd like to see one of you guys snatch it up!

For the guys in this section, I'll also throw in the chassis and body for that price.

how about shocks rather then a chassis?

so I picked this up and put it back together, received it in pieces (great price). Made some changes, had a friend help me out with it. I know very little about comp crawling, but our LHS opened a new course and I want to try it this summer. I felt this was a good buy and ready to go. Here's where it is at.










You will notice that it's a tight squeeze with all the electronics- but they are all there. Fabricated some shock mounts for the axles and chassis. Tires rub barely- I don't think I can get any more steering travel because it currently hits the links. Maybe with a different tire. Need to pick up a better servo and going to mount a small lipo on the rear servo mount. Overall though I am happy- barely any run time on the axles and upgraded to the hilt. Looks to be great clearance and articulation.

let me know your thoughts!

in some earlier posts this rig had some Integy Axle extenders on it .. what happen to them.. and to the person that put them on originaly. how were these put on .. I am not sure how they work and would like to add them to mine but would like a little more insight on how they work. to extend the axles out. if some one else would like to comment too that would be great may show some pics on how they are installed .. thanks

The gmade spacers are much better IMO.

The Integy wideners are still on the truck.
The widener consists of a 15mm long hex widener, plus a really long stub axle to go all the way through the hex widener.
If you need pics im sure Mike wouldnt mind taking a couple for you, i normally take pics of trucks i work on but didnt on this one.

Mike, put that thing on a stand so the tires dont flat spot.
