Took a trip down to Monterey and decided to take along the rig and test out the new Futaba s9157 servo and the new Venom BTA steering prototype setup.

In your first set of pics, where was that taken? It looks like Tahoe but we were there in the summer and i cant remember those rock formations in the water. Nice rig! Got anymore pics of the BTA kit. Im gonna be doing one real soon with my sons Creeper.

Would like to see pics of the front axle set-up

Did you use the Hi-Steer Knuckles from CKRC??
I was looking at those this past week for my next upgrade.

Had my diff case strip out today in the shop after work tonight on the course, so i think im gonna be doing the axial locker mod tomorrow.

As far as the BTA i just tossed up those pics as a teaser, still working it out a little bit playing around with different set ups. Trying to dial it in good. Works awesome now, but it needs to be perfect.

I've seen some interest in tossing the CKRC RockStar chassis under it with the R2D tranny, I LOVE MY chassis set up. Tho with the CKRC 30% bent links you will need to shorten them up a little to hit 12.5" and under WB. The upper links im still messing with since im trying out a 4-Link Batterey/Servo Mount With the BTA.

A few new updated chassis pics on pg2

Keep Checking back Here For Updates.

Thanks for the Views All.

Feel Free to ask Questions

Tom
