|  Team RCC Blackjack
Heres some specs on my current Blackjack setup before it goes under for a complete rebuild. Prototype Blackjack chassis Tlt Axles:
55t lathe 3s 2100mah lipo Mamba Max Hitec 5995 servo 3 Racing Mini lst shocks Pede driveshafts Current tire/wheel setups Axials with badlands, kreepy foams in the front, proline ultra firms in the back Mayhem BL's with Losi claws (same foam setup) Total weight is 11.5oz up front total, 9.5oz in the back for each wheel, tire, foam. I have quite a few changes coming up, figured I should post how it sits now. Its treated me well since I built it in September 07. Even competed at Nats with it 10 days after I build it  Placed 16th, I was extremely happy with how it ran. Its also doing well in the Nor-Cal points series. Planning on running Mayhem engineering wheels all year, should have a few sets of Double Phatty's any day now  Cobalt puller, axial tranny with VF dig both ready to go. New Blackjack production plates also waiting. Working on a new delrin skid that has a recessed seat for the axial tranny to get it even lower  I hope it all fits!!Thanks to: Holmes Hobbies RCP Crawlers The Crawler Store Mayhem Engineering Sincityrcrc.com Current pics    Last edited by Brandon; 03-20-2008 at 05:49 PM. |

Few more pics. Everything is pretty worn, the shocks dont have much oil left and I noticed the passenger side wheelbase was only 12 1/4" from a few bent parts... Cant wait to see how it drives again with a full 12.5" wheelbase    |

Shocks rebuilt  Built a new axial tranny, Holmes Hobbies Cobalt 10t, losi 13t pinion   Also started on the new skid, checked its width and trimmed the braces on the new blackjack chassis to fit the motor. Everything is going to be tight   |
