Default another top bannana

not really a build thread but a built thread.
has the top bannana chassis, losi tires and body, aluminum links soon to be delrin, novak crawler speed controler and 55t lathe. now has msd wheels and some other unknown shocks. have good batterys and a vf dig on there way.
This chassis is the best chassis i have ever driven. I have made lines in my rock course that i didnt even think could be done. i cant wait until i get it dialed, it impresses my now.

Have you got any pics of it without the body?

Interested to see what link setup you got.

heres some updated pics. it now has parrallel uppers in the front thanks to Del Monte. since i was building two new links i went ahead and built all of them. it has delrin uppers and steel lowers. its sitting alittle lower than i like but with the driving i have been doing it has not been a problem.

nice! Servo plate looks good on there

How do you like the parallel uppers with the full droop setup? It looks pretty capable


Good to see claws back on there too...

i like the parallel upper alot. this setup sidehills alot better than it did before. and the claws are back, i couldnt find the right foams for the panthers, they may be back but not for now.

Not that wheels and a fresh body will make it crawl better but wow that's a transformation and a half.

i did some more tunning. its now a full 12 1/2, instead of the 12 1/4. changed the dig servo from the 225 to a 525. and i noticed the my front links were binding. after fixing the little problems it flex smother and is way more stable.

The servo was a tight fit but clears everything.

And i just added my new beadlock rings from 62PYRO.

After making the switch to all Proline this last week i thought i should update my thread. it now has the Proline Hammers in their new compound. these tires are amazing.i painted the rockstar body in a hurry for this weekend but i will be painting a c10 crawler body soon, with a little better quality.

Man those Nana's are low slung. They seem to be a lot lower than my black jack. Nice rigs.
